Abstract: We present a construction of the Anisotropic Gaussian Semi-Classical Schr"{o}dinger Propagator, emblematic of a class of Fourier Integral Operators of quadratic phase kernels related to the Schr"{o}dinger equation. We deduce a set of algebraic relations of the variational matrices, solutions of the variational system pertaining to single Gaussian wave packet semi-classical time evolution, representing the symplectic and other invariances of the dynamics, which are subsequently used to derive the Van Vleck formula from the semi-classical propagator, as an argument for the practical importance of the later relations in the relevant wave packet calculus.
