Chaotic instantons and enhancement of tunneling in double-well system   with polychromatic perturbation
  Chaotic instanton approach allows to describe analytically the influence of the polychromatic perturbation on quantum properties of nonlinear systems. Double well system with single, multiple and polychromatic kicked perturbation is considered in the paper to compare quantitative analytical predictions with the results of numerical calculations. Chaotic instantons are responsible for the enhancement of tunneling far away from the exact (avoided) level crossings in framework of the approach used. Time-independent averaged system is used for regular approximation of the chaotic instanton solution in order to take into account its contribution to the ground quasienergy doublet splitting. Formula for the ground quasienergy levels' splitting was derived averaging trajectory action in the stochastic layer in the framework of chaotic instanton approach. Results of quasienergy spectrum numerical calculations and simulations for tunneling dynamics are in good agreement with the obtained analytical predictions.
