Tunnel effect for semiclassical random walk
Journées équations aux dérivées partielles (2014), article no. 6, 18 p.

In this note we describe recent results on semiclassical random walk associated to a probability density which may also concentrate as the semiclassical parameter goes to zero. The main result gives a spectral asymptotics of the close to 1 eigenvalues. This problem was studied in [1] and relies on a general factorization result for pseudo-differential operators. In this note we just sketch the proof of this second theorem. At the end of the note, using the factorization, we give a new proof of the spectral asymptotics based on some comparison argument.
