Abstract

We compute the waves propagating on the compact surface of constant negative curvature and genus 2 that is a toy model in quantum chaos theory and cosmic topology. We adopt a variational approach using finite elements. We have to implement the action of the fuchsian group by suitable boundary conditions of periodic type. Despite the ergodicity of the dynamics that is quantum weak mixing, the computation is very accurate. A spectral analysis of the transient waves allows to compute the spectrum and the eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. We test the exponential decay due to a localized dumping satisfying the assumption of geometric control.
