Abstract
The frozen Gaussian approximation (FGA) is an effective tool for modeling high frequency wave propagation. In previous works, the convergence of the FGA has established for strict hyperbolic systems. In this work, we derive the frozen Gaussian approximation for the elastic wave equation, which can be cast as a hyperbolic system with repeated eigenvalues. In the derivation, the strong form for the evolution equation is introduced. A diabatic coupling is observed for the amplitude of the evolution equations between the SH, SV waves. Using previous results with new energy estimates we establish the convergence for the first order FGA for the elastic wave equation.
