Abstract

We consider semi-classical Schr{\"o}dinger operator P(h)=h2Δ+V(x) P(h)=-h^2\Delta +V(x) in Rn{\mathbb R}^n such that the analytic potential VV has a non-degenerate critical point x0=0x_0=0 with critical value E0E_0 and we can define resonances in some fixed neighborhood of E0E_0 when h>0h>0 is small enough. If the eigenvalues of the Hessian are \zz\zz-independent the resonances in hδh^\delta-neighborhood of E0E_0 (δ>0\delta >0) can be calculated explicitly as the eigenvalues of the semi-classical Birkhoff normal form. Assuming that potential is symmetric with respect to reflections about the coordinate axes we show that the classical Birkhoff normal form determines the Taylor series of the potential at x0.x_0. As a consequence, the resonances in a hδh^\delta-neighborhood of E0E_0 determine the first NN terms in the Taylor series of VV at x0.x_0. The proof uses the recent inverse spectral results of V. Guillemin and A. Uribe.
