Abstract

Consider the two-dimensional semiclassical Schr\"odinger operator P=22Δ+VP_\hbar=-\frac{\hbar^2}{2}\Delta+V on R2\mathbb R^2, where VV has a nondegenerate well at the origin, its harmonic frequencies are rationally independent, and VV is Z2\mathbb Z_2-symmetric. We prove that, generically, the first three layers of the quantum Birkhoff normal form (QBNF) determine the full Taylor series of VV at the origin, up to the unavoidable spatial inversion V(x)V(x)V(x)\mapsto V(-x). The generic condition depends only on the jet of VV through order ten. Consequently, for real analytic potentials with a unique isolated global well at the origin, the low-lying semiclassical spectrum generically determines VV up to spatial inversion.
