| contents | We study theoretically two consequences of the mixed classical phase space for three repulsively-interacting bosonic particles in a circular trap. First, we show that the energy levels of the corresponding quantum system are well described by a Berry-Robnik distribution. Second, we identify stationary quantum states whose density is enhanced along the stable classical periodic trajectories, and calculate their energies and wavefunctions using the semiclassical Einstein-Brillouin-Keller (EBK) theory. Our EBK results are in excellent agreement with our full-fledged finite-element numerics. We discuss the impact of discrete symmetries, including bosonic exchange symmetry, on these classically localized states. They are within experimental reach, and occur in the same range of energies as the quantum scar reported in our previous work [Phys. Rev. A 107, 022217 (2023)]. |
