In this paper we study the semiclassical limit of the Schr\"odinger equation. Under mild regularity assumptions on the potential $U$ which include Born-Oppenheimer potential energy surfaces in molecular dynamics, we establish asymptotic…

We develop a semiclassical approximation scheme for the constraint equations of supersymmetric canonical quantum gravity. This is achieved by a Born-Oppenheimer type of expansion, in analogy to the case of the usual Wheeler-DeWitt equation.…

We explore in detail the role in euclidean 3d quantum gravity of quantum Born reciprocity or `semidualisation'. The latter is an algebraic operation defined using quantum group methods that interchanges position and momentum. Using this we…

We study the semiclassical distribution of resonances of a $2 \times 2$ matrix Schr\"odinger operator, obtained as a reduction of an Hamiltonian when studying molecular predissociation models under the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. The…

Non-commutative spacetime and quantum groups have been argued to capture non-classical features of spacetime and its symmetries in the low-energy limit of quantum gravity. In this letter, we show that employing the $SU_q(2)$ quantum group…

We consider various notions of equivalence in the space of bounded operators on a Hilbert space, in particular modulo finite rank, modulo Schatten $p$-class, and modulo compact. Using Hjorth's theory of turbulence, the latter two are shown…

Schr\"odinger equations with nonlinearities concentrated in some regions of space are good models of various physical situations and have interesting mathematical properties. We show that in the semiclassical limit it is possible to…

The possibility that a classical space-time and quantum matter cohabit at the deepest level, i.e. the possibility of having a fundamental and not phenomenological semiclassical gravity, is often disregarded for lack of a good candidate…
