TL;DR

This paper generalizes semi-classical normal forms for integrable systems with Morse singularities beyond one dimension, extending Colin de Verdière and Parisse's work on 1D Schrödinger operators. Using Eliasson's classification of critical integrable systems, it establishes a semi-classical normal form near non-degenerate critical points of the moment map, providing a microlocal classification of such systems in arbitrary finite dimensions.

ABSTRACT

The semi-classical study of a 1-dimensional Schrödinger operator near a non-degenerate maximum of the potential has lead Colin de Verdière and Parisse to prove a microlocal normal form theorem for any 1-dimensional pseudo-differential operator with the same kind of singularity. We present here a generalization of this result to pseudo-differential integrable systems of any finite degree of freedom with a Morse singularity. Our results are based upon Eliasson's study of critical integrable systems.

Motivation & Objective

• To extend semi-classical normal form theorems from 1-dimensional Schrödinger operators to higher-dimensional integrable systems with Morse singularities.
• To provide a microlocal classification of pseudo-differential integrable systems near critical points of the moment map.
• To generalize Colin de Verdière and Parisse's 1D result to systems of arbitrary finite degree of freedom.
• To establish a semi-classical normal form in a neighborhood of a non-degenerate critical point of the moment map using microlocal analysis.
• To unify the semi-classical structure of integrable systems with Morse-type singularities across dimensions, building on Eliasson's foundational work.

Proposed method

• Adapts Eliasson's classification of non-degenerate critical points in integrable systems to the semi-classical setting.
• Applies microlocal analysis techniques to construct a normal form for pseudo-differential operators near a Morse singularity.
• Uses a symplectic change of coordinates to linearize the system in a neighborhood of the critical point, preserving the integrable structure.
• Employs a quantization procedure that respects the symplectic geometry of the moment map and its critical set.
• Constructs a semi-classical normal form by conjugating the system to a model operator with explicit structure near the singularity.
• Relies on the existence of action-angle variables in a neighborhood of the critical point, extended to the semi-classical regime.

Experimental results

Research questions

• RQ1 Can the semi-classical normal form theorem for 1D Schrödinger operators be extended to higher-dimensional integrable systems with Morse singularities?

• RQ3 What is the appropriate generalization of Colin de Verdière and Parisse's 1D result to systems with arbitrary finite degrees of freedom?

Key findings

• A semi-classical normal form is constructed for any finite-dimensional completely integrable system with a non-degenerate Morse singularity of the moment map.
• The normal form is valid in a neighborhood of the critical point and captures the full microlocal structure of the system.
• The result generalizes the 1D semi-classical normal form of Colin de Verdière and Parisse to arbitrary dimensions.
• The construction relies on Eliasson's local classification of integrable systems near non-degenerate critical points.
• The normal form exhibits a specific structure involving quadratic terms and action variables, with quantization preserving the symplectic invariants.
• The method provides a uniform framework for analyzing spectral and dynamical properties near such singularities in the semi-classical limit.
