Abstract
We review recent work on the so-called kicked Harper model, which can be viewed either as a model system in the framework of quantum chaos, or as a pulsed version of the Harper model, which has been thoroughly investigated in the context of magnetic field effects in solid state p hysics. In particular we describe its rich phase diagram, by means of both dynamical methods and multifractal analysis of the spectrum.
