We consider the Schrodinger equation with an external potential and a cubic nonlinearity, in the semiclassical limit. The initial data are sums of WKB states, with smooth phases and smooth, compactly supported initial amplitudes, with…
This paper is concerned with an efficient numerical method for solving the 1D stationary Schr\"odinger equation in the highly oscillatory regime. Being a hybrid, analytical-numerical approach it does not have to resolve each oscillation, in…
We analyze quantitatively the accuracy of eigenfunction and eigenvalue calculations in the frame work of WKB and instanton semiclassical methods. We show that to estimate the accuracy it is enough to compare two linearly independent (with…
We prove an error estimate for a Lie-Trotter splitting operator associated to the Schrodinger-Poisson equation in the semiclassical regime, when the WKB approximation is valid. In finite time, and so long as the solution to a compressible…
The three-dimensional Schredinger's equation is analyzed with the help of the correspondence principle between classical and quantum-mechanical quantities. Separation is performed after reduction of the original equation to the form of the…
We study semiclassical 1-D Schr\"odinger operators of the form $Pu = -h^2 u'' \,+\,x^\gamma W(x) u$ on a finite interval $[0,b]$ for $0 < \gamma \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \mathbb{Q}$. We show that that the WKB expansions of solution can be…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the Schr\"odinger equation in the presence of a nonlinearity of Hartree type in the semi-classical regime. Our scaling corresponds to a weakly nonlinear regime where the nonlinearity affects the leading…
In this paper we develop a general, systematic, microlocal framework for the Fredholm analysis of non-elliptic problems, including high energy (or semiclassical) estimates, which is stable under perturbations. This framework is relatively…
We consider initial value problems for $\varepsilon^2\,\varphi''+a(x)\,\varphi=0$ in the highly oscillatory regime, i.e., with $a(x)>0$ and $0<\varepsilon\ll 1$. We discuss their efficient numerical integration on coarse grids, but still…
We study the Maslov correction to semiclassical states by using a K\"ahler regularized BKS pairing map from the energy representation to the Schr\"odinger representation. For general semiclassical states, the existence of this…
In this paper we study scattering of two-dimensional massless Dirac fermions by a potential that depends on a single Cartesian variable. Depending on the energy of the incoming particle and its angle of incidence, there are three different…
We present the results of a numerical experiment inspired by the semiclassical (zero-dispersion) limit of the focusing nonlinear Schroedinger (NLS) equation. In particular, we focus on the Gaussian semiclassical soliton ensemble, a family…
The Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) perturbative series, a widely used technique for solving linear waves, is typically divergent and at best, asymptotic, thus impeding predictions beyond the first few leading-order effects. Here, we report…
