Summary – Peres lattices

1. Vivid tool for visualising quantum chaos, especially in 2D systems

2. Capability of distinguishing between „chaotic“ and „regular“ levels

3. Enormous freedom in choosing Peres invariant

4. Peres lattices can be constructed both for mean value and variance of the chosen operator. Variance lattices can show more subtle features of the systém.
