Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem in quantum mechanics.

Quantum manifestations of the dynamics around resonant tori in perturbed hamiltonian systems, dictated by the Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem, are shown to exist. They are embedded in the interactions involving states which differ in a number of quanta equal to the order of the classical resonance. Moreover, the associated classical phase space structures are mimicked in the quasiprobability density functions and their zeros.
