Abstract
Although quantum tunneling between phase space tori occurs, it is suppressed in the semiclassical limit for the Schr\"{o}dinger equation of a particle in under the influence of a smooth periodic potential. In particular this implies that the distribution of quantum group velocities near energy converges to the distribution of the classical asymptotic velocities near , up to a term of the order .
