Abstract: In this work, we give sharp asymptotic equivalents in the limit $ho0$ of the small eigenvalues of the Witten Laplacian, that is the operator associated with the quadratic form ${\displaystyle }$ psiin H^1_0(Omega)mapsto h^2 int_Omega �ig vert abla �ig (e^{frac 1hf} psi�ig )�ig vert^2, e^{-frac 2hf},${\displaystyle }$where $overlineOmega=OmegacuppartialOmega$ is an oriented $C^{i}nfty$ compact and connected Riemannian manifold with non empty boundary $partialOmega$ and $f:overlineOmegaomathbbR$ is a $C^{i}nfty$ Morse function. The function $f$ is allowed to admit critical points on $partialOmega$, which is the main novelty of this work in comparison with the existing literature.
