    Abstract

    Computing measures which directly reflect the "distance" between quantum and classical evolutions as a function of ℏ, λ, and D and then searching for transformations that collapse the resulting hypersurface onto a function of a composite parameter of the form ζ=ℏαλβDγ are proposed. Results for the quantum Cat Map and Duffing oscillator show accurate scaling behavior over a wide parameter range.
