Let \(\Omega\) be a convex open subset of \(\mathbb{R}^ n\), with \(W^{2,\infty}\) boundary \(\partial\Omega\) (i.e. with lipschitzean normals). Let \((\varphi_ k)\) be an orthonormal basis of \(L^ 2(\Omega)\), consisting of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet problem: \[ - \Delta\varphi_ k=\lambda_ k\varphi_ k\quad\text{in }\Omega,\;\varphi_ k=0\text{ on } \partial\Omega. \] Assume the billiard \(\Omega\) is ergodic. The main result of the paper is the existence of a subsequence \((k_ j)\), with \(k_ j\sim j\) as \(j\to\infty\), such that \[ (A\varphi_{k_ j},\varphi_{k_ j})\to\int\sigma_ 0(A)\quad\text{as }j\to\infty, \] for any 0-order pseudodifferential operator \(A\) on \(\mathbb{R}^ n\). In this formula, \(\varphi_{k_ j}\) is extended by 0 outside \(\Omega\), and the principal symbol \(\sigma_ 0(A)\) is integrated over the unit bundle \(S*\Omega\), with respect to the Liouville measure. The authors explain the main ideas of their proof; full details will appear elsewhere. An important tool is a transport equation obtained by semiclassical pseudodifferential calculus.
