We define and prove some properties of the semi-classical wavefront set. We also define and study semi-classical Fourier integral operators, of which we give a complete characterization. Lastly, we prove a generalization of the…
We define classes of quantum states associated to isotropic submanifolds of cotangent bundles. The classes are stable under the action of semiclassical pseudo-differential operators and covariant under the action of semiclassical Fourier…
We prove, under some generic assumptions, that the semiclassical spectrum modulo O(h^2) of a one dimensional pseudodifferential operator completely determines the symplectic geometry of the underlying classical system. In particular, the…
We introduce the wave-front set for distributions with respect to Fourier images of weighted translation invariant Banach function spaces. We prove that usual mapping properties for pseudo-differential operators hold in the context of such…
We characterize the wave front set $WF^P_\ast(u)$ with respect to the iterates of a linear partial differential operator with constant coefficients of a classical distribution $u\in{\mathcal D}'(\Omega)$, $\Omega$ an open subset in…
For a class of non-selfadjoint semiclassical operators in dimension one, we get a complete asymptotic description of all eigenvalues near a critical value of the leading symbol of the operator on the boundary of the pseudospectrum.
By using the overcompleteness of coherent states we find an alternative form of the unit operator for which the ket and the bra appearing under the integration sign do not refer to the same phase-space point. This defines a new quantum…
The pseudospectra (or spectral instability) of non-selfadjoint operators is a topic of current interest in applied mathematics. In fact, for non-selfadjoint operators the resolvent could be very large outside the spectrum, making the…
We introduce a minimalistic notion of semiclassical quantization and use it to prove that the convex hull of the semiclassical spectrum of a quantum system given by a collection of commuting operators converges to the convex hull of the…
We construct a special class of semiclassical Fourier integral operators whose wave fronts are symplectic micromorphisms. These operators have very good properties: they form a category on which the wave front map becomes a functor into the…
The semiclassical propagation of spin coherent states is considered in complex phase space. For two time-independent systems we find the appropriate classical trajectories and show that their combined contributions are able to describe…
The problem of an origin of the Solary-Kochetov extra-phase contribution to the naive semiclassical form of a generalized phase-space propagator is addressed with the special reference to the su(2) spin case which is the most important in…
A detailed derivation of the semiclassical propagator in the generalized coherent-state representation is performed by applying the saddle-point method to a path integral over the classical phase space. With the purpose of providing greater…
We study the distribution of eigenvalues for selfadjoint $h$--pseudodifferential operators in dimension two, arising as perturbations of selfadjoint operators with a periodic classical flow. When the strength $\varepsilon$ of the…
In this paper, we continue the analysis of the effects of semiclassical sub principal controlled quasimodes, approximate solutions to P(h)u(h,b), depending on the subprincipal symbol b, which can give spectral insta bility (pseudospectrum).…
We develop a notion of wavefront set aimed at characterizing in Fourier space the directions along which a distribution behaves or not as an element of a specific Besov space. Subsequently we prove an alternative, albeit equivalent…
We consider quantum scattering from a compactly supported potential $q$. The semiclassical limit amounts to letting the wavenumber $k \to \infty$ while rescaling the potential as $k^2 q$ (alternatively, one can scale Planck's constant…
We find some explicit bounds on the ${\mathcal L}(L^2)$-norm of pseudo-differential operators with symbols defined by a metric on the phase space. In particular, we prove that this norm depends only on the "structure constants" of the…
Let $P(h),h\in]0,1]$ be a semiclassical scalar differential operator of order $2$. The existence of a supersymmetric structure given by a matrix $G(x;h)$ was exhibited in \cite{HeHiSj13} under rather general assumptions. In this note we…
It is shown that the semiclassical coherent state propagator takes its simplest form when the quantum mechanical Hamiltonian is replaced by its Weyl symbol in defining the classical action, in that there is then no need of a Solari-Kochetov…
