We consider the semi-classical limit of the quantum evolution of Gaussian coherent states whenever the Hamiltonian H is given, as sum of quadratic forms, by H=-ħ22md2dx2+˙αδ0, with α∈ R and δ the Dirac delta-distribution at x= 0.

Abstract
We consider the semi-classical limit of the quantum evolution of Gaussian coherent states whenever the Hamiltonian H is given, as sum of quadratic forms, by H=-ħ22md2dx2+˙αδ0, with α∈ R and δ the Dirac delta-distribution at x= 0. We show that the quantum evolution can be approximated,uniformly for any time away from the collision time and with an error of order ħ3/2-λ, 0<3/2, by the quasi-classical evolution generated by a self-adjoint extension of the restriction to Cc∞(M0), M0:={(q,p)∈R2|q≠0}, of (- i times) the generator of the free classical dynamics; such a self-adjoint extension does not correspond to the classical dynamics describing the complete reflection due to the infinite barrier. Similar approximation results are also provided for the wave and scattering operators.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
