Abstract
It is known that no one statistical test by itself can give conclusive evidence for the presence or absence of quantum
chaos within a given system. For this reason a range of detailed tests, namely the nearest neighbour spacing distribution,
covariance of adjacent spacings, spectral rigidity, correlation-hole method and inverse participation ratio have
been applied to the quasienergies and quasieigenstates of a periodically kicked particle in a 1-D infinite potential well.
The results are compared with the predictions of random matrix theory for various kick strengths in order to search for
signatures of quantum chaos within this system.
