Abstract
Partial transport barriers in the chaotic sea of Hamiltonian systems influence classical transport, as they allow for a small flux between chaotic phase-space regions only. We find for higher-dimensional systems that quantum transport through such a partial barrier is more restrictive than expected from two-dimensional maps. We establish a universal transition from quantum suppression to mimicking classical transport. The scaling parameter involves the flux, the size of a Planck cell, and the localization length due to dynamical localization along a resonance channel. This is numerically demonstrated for coupled kicked rotors with a partial barrier that generalizes a cantorus to higher dimensions.
