TLDR
The standard eigenfunctions of Riemannian flat tori with quantum completely integrable Laplacians have uniformly bounded $L 2 -norms as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract
The standard eigenfunctions $\phi_\lambda=e^{i\langle\lambda,x\rangle}$ on flat tori $\mathbb {R}^n/L$ have $L^\infty$-norms bounded independently of the eigenvalue. In the case of irrational flat tori, it follows that $L^2$-normalized eigenfunctions have uniformly bounded $^\infty$-norms. Similar bases exist on other flat manifolds. Does this property characterize flat manifolds? We give an affirmative answer for compact Riemannian manifolds with quantum completely integrable Laplacians.

Contact Toric Manifolds

TL;DR: In this article, a complete and self-contained classification of compact connected contact toric manifolds is provided, based on the conjectures of Toth and Zelditch on the uniqueness of toric integrable actions on the punctured cotangent bundles on n-toru and of the two-sphere S2.

Between classical and quantum

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss three ways in which classical physics has so far been believed to emerge from quantum physics, namely in the limit h -> 0 of small Planck's constant (in a finite system), and through decoherence and consistent histories.

Riemannian manifolds with maximal eigenfunction growth

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that any Riemannian manifold with maximal eigenfunction growth must have a point at which the set of geodesic loops at the point of interest has positive measure in the space of the set at the origin of the loop.

Regular and irregular semiclassical wavefunctions

TL;DR: The form of the wavefunction psi for a semiclassical regular quantum state (associated with classical motion on an N-dimensional torus in the 2N-dimensional phase space) is very different from the form of psi for an irregular state associated with stochastic classical motion in all or part of the (2N-1) energy surface in phase space as discussed by the authors.
