Abstract

We consider a classical Hamiltonian HH on R2d\mathbb{R}^{2d}, invariant by a finite group of symmetry GG, whose Weyl quantization H^\hat{H} is a selfadjoint operator on L2(Rd)L^2(\mathbb{R}^d). If χ\chi is an irreducible character of GG, we investigate the spectrum of its restriction H^_χ\hat{H}\_\chi to the symmetry subspace L2_χ(Rd)L^2\_\chi(\mathbb{R}^d) of L2(Rd)L^2(\mathbb{R}^d) coming from the decomposition of Peter-Weyl. We give reduced semi-classical asymptotics of a regularised spectral density describing the spectrum of H^_χ\hat{H}\_\chi near a non critical energy ERE\in\mathbb{R}. If Σ_E:={H=E}\Sigma\_E:=\{H=E \} is compact, assuming that periodic orbits are non-degenerate in Σ_E/G\Sigma\_E/G, we get a reduced Gutzwiller trace formula which makes periodic orbits of the reduced space Σ_E/G\Sigma\_E/G appear. The method is based upon the use of coherent states, whose propagation was given in the work of M. Combescure and D. Robert.
