Abstract

Consider a semiclassical Hamiltonian H:=h2Δ+VEH := h^{2} \Delta + V - E where Δ\Delta is the positive Laplacian on Rd\mathbb{R}^{d}, VC0(Rd)V \in C^{\infty}_{0}(\mathbb{R}^{d}) and E>0E > 0 is an energy level. We prove that under an appropriate dynamical hypothesis on the Hamilton flow corresponding to HH, the eigenvalues of the scattering matrix Sh(V)S_{h}(V) define a measure on S1\mathbb{S}^{1} that converges to Lebesgue measure away from 1S11 \in \mathbb{S}^{1} as h0h \to 0.
