Semiclassical analysis of low lying eigenvalues. I. Non-degenerate minima : asymptotic expansions
We continue the study started by the first author of the semiclassical Kac Operator. This kind of operator has been obtained for example by M. Kac as he was studying a 2D spin lattice by the so-called “transfer operator method”. We are interested here in the thermodynamical limit of the ground state energy of this operator. For Kac’s spin model, is the free energy per spin, and the semiclassical regime corresponds to the mean-field approximation. Under suitable assumptions, which are satisfied...
We consider a nonlinear area preserving Anosov map on the torus phase space, which is the simplest example of a fully chaotic dynamics. We are interested in the quantum dynamics for long time, generated by the unitary quantum propagator . The usual semi-classical Trace formula expresses for finite time , in the limit , in terms of periodic orbits of of period . Recent work reach time where is the Ehrenfest time, and is the Lyapounov coefficient. Using a semi-classical normal form...
In this paper, we study the semiclassical limit of the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the Neumann boundary condition in an exterior domain. We prove that before the formation of singularities in the limit system, the quantum density and the quantum momentum converge to the unique solution of the compressible Euler equation with the slip boundary condition as the scaling parameter approaches
In this article, the structure of semiclassical measures for solutions to the linear Schrödinger equation on the torus is analysed. We show that the disintegration of such a measure on every invariant lagrangian torus is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We obtain an expression of the Radon-Nikodym derivative in terms of the sequence of initial data and show that it satisfies an explicit propagation law. As a consequence, we also prove an observability inequality, saying...
Let be a compact Kähler manifold with integral Kähler class and a holomorphic Hermitian line bundle whose curvature is the symplectic form of . Let be a Hamiltonian, and let be the Toeplitz operator with multiplier acting on the space . We obtain estimates on the eigenvalues and eigensections of as , in terms of the classical Hamilton flow of . We study in some detail the case when is an integral coadjoint orbit of a Lie group.
