Abstract

In the limit 0\hbar\to 0, we analyze a class of Schr\"odinger operators H=2L+W+VidH_\hbar = \hbar^2 L + \hbar W + V\cdot \mathrm{id} acting on sections of a vector bundle Eh\mathcal{Eh} over a Riemannian manifold MM where LL is a Laplace type operator, WW is an endomorphism field and the potential energy VV has a non-degenerate minimum at some point pMp\in M. We construct quasimodes of WKB-type near pp for eigenfunctions associated with the low lying eigenvalues of HH_\hbar. These are obtained from eigenfunctions of the associated harmonic oscillator Hp,H_{p, \hbar} at pp, acting on smooth functions on the tangent space.
