Abstract: Motivated by a quantum Zeno dynamics in a cavity quantum electrodynamics setting, we study the asymptotics of a family of symbols corresponding to a truncated momentum operator, in the semiclassical limit of vanishing Planck constant $hbaro0$ and large quantum number $Noinfty$, with $hbarN$ kept fixed. In a suitable topology, the limit is the discontinuous symbol $pch{i}_D(x,p)$ where $ch{i}_D$ is the characteristic function of the classically permitted region $D$ in phase space. A refined analysis shows that the symbol is asymptotically close to the function $pch{i}_D^{(N)}(x,p)$, where $ch{i}_D^{(N)}$ is a smooth version of $ch{i}_D$ related to the integrated Airy function. We also discuss the limit from a dynamical point of view.
