We study the Wigner transform for a class of smooth Bloch wave functions on the at torus. We select amplitudes and phase functions through a variational approach in the quantum states space based on a semiclassical version of the classical effective Hamiltonian H(P) which is the central object of the weak KAM theory. Our main result is that the semiclassical limit of the Wigner transform admits subsequences converging in the weak* sense to Mather probability measures on the phase space.

Abstract
We study the Wigner transform for a class of smooth Bloch wave functions on the at torus. We select amplitudes and phase functions through a variational approach in the quantum states space based on a semiclassical version of the classical effective Hamiltonian H(P) which is the central object of the weak KAM theory. Our main result is that the semiclassical limit of the Wigner transform admits subsequences converging in the weak* sense to Mather probability measures on the phase space. These measures are invariant for the classical dynamics and Action minimizing.File in questo prodotto:
