We construct formal asymptotic expansions of WKB-type for eigenfunctions associated with the low lying eigenvalues of $H_\\varepsilon$. These are obtained from eigenfunctions or quasimodes for the operator $H_\\varepsilon$, acting on $L^2(\\mathbb{R}^d)$, via restriction to the lattice $\\varepsilon\\mathbb{Z}^d$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-02-03T10:36:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37K60", "41A60" ], "keywords": [ "difference operators", "asymptotic eigenfunctions", "construct formal asymptotic expansions", "one-well potential", "small parameter" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
