Adiabatic evolution and shape resonances

Motivated by a problem of one mode approximation for a non-linear evolution with charge accumulation in potential wells, we consider a general linear adiabatic evolution problem for a semi-classical Schr\"odinger operator with a time dependent potential with a well in an island. In particular, we show that we can choose the adiabatic parameter $\varepsilon$ with $\ln\varepsilon \asymp -1/h$, where $h$ denotes the semi-classical parameter, and get adiabatic approximations of exact solutions over a time interval of length $\varepsilon ^{-N}$ with an error ${\cal O}(\varepsilon ^N)$. Here $N>0$ is arbitrary.
