We review some results concerning the semi-classical limit for the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, with or without an external potential. We consider initial data which are either of the WKB type, or very concentrated as the semi-classical…

Semiclassical methods are essential in analyzing quantum mechanical systems. Although they generally produce approximate results, relatively rare potentials exist for which these methods are exact. Such intriguing potentials serve as…
Semiclassical Mechanics allows for a description of quantum systems which preserves their phase information, while using only the system's classical dynamics as an input. Over the time an identification has been developed between stationary…
