Fractal Weyl laws for chaotic open systems.
We present a conjecture relating the density of quantum resonances for an open chaotic system to the fractal dimension of the associated classical repeller. Mathematical arguments justifying this conjecture are discussed. Numerical evidence based on computation of resonances of systems of n disks on a plane are presented supporting this conjecture. The result generalizes the Weyl law for the density of states of a closed system to chaotic open systems.
