We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server end of 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.
Although quantum tunneling between phase space tori occurs, it is suppressed in the semiclassical limit
In particular this implies that the distribution of quantum group velocities near energy E converges to the distribution of the classical asymptotic velocities near E, up to a term of the order
