dc.descriptionWe study the resonance eigenstates of a particular quantization of the open baker map. For any admissible value of Planck's constant, the corresponding quantum map is a subunitary matrix, and the nonzero component of its spectrum is contained inside an annulus in the complex plane, $|z_{min}|\leq |z|\leq |z_{max}|$. We consider semiclassical sequences of eigenstates, such that the moduli of their eigenvalues converge to a fixed radius $r$. We prove that, if the moduli converge to $r=|z_{max}|$, then the sequence of eigenstates converges to a fixed phase space measure $ρ_{max}$. The same holds for sequences with eigenvalue moduli converging to $|z_{min}|$, with a different limit measure $ρ_{min}$. Both these limiting measures are supported on fractal sets, which are trapped sets of the classical dynamics. For a general radius $|z_{min}|< r < |z_{max}|$, we identify families of eigenstates with precise self-similar properties.
