Abstract

We prove a formal local inverse spectral result for a two-dimensional semiclassical Schr\"odinger operator whose potential well possesses a single reflection symmetry. After a harmonic linear normalization, the potential can be written as V(x1,x2)=12(v1x12+v2x22)+j+2k3aj,2kx1jx22kV(x_1,x_2)=\frac{1}{2}(v_1x_1^2+v_2x_2^2)+\sum_{j+2k\ge 3}a_{j,2k}\,x_1^j x_2^{2k}, with v1/v2Qv_1/v_2\notin\mathbb{Q}. The operator can be brought into a quantum Birkhoff normal form whose Weyl symbol is a formal series BH2+2r+k+2br,k,2rΩ1kΩ2B \equiv H_2 + \sum_{2r+k+\ell \ge 2} b_{r,k,\ell}\, \hbar^{2r} \Omega_1^k \Omega_2^\ell. If the coefficient a30a_{30} of the cubic term x13x_1^3 is non-zero, then the first two layers of the quantum Birkhoff normal form (i.e., the coefficients b0,k,b_{0,k,\ell} and b1,k,b_{1,k,\ell}) uniquely determine the full Taylor series of VV, once the sign of a30a_{30} and the transverse-line data {a1,2k}k1\{a_{1,2k}\}_{k\ge 1} are prescribed.
