Abstract: We establish spectral estimates at a critical energy level for $h$-pseudors . Via a trace formula, we compute the contribution of isolated (non-extremum) critical points under a condition of "real principal type". The main result holds for all dimensions, for a singularity of any finite order and can be invariantly expressed in term of the geometry of the singularity. When the singularities are not integrable on the energy surface the results are significative since the order w.r.t. $h$ of the spectral distributions are bigger than in the regular setting.

Review text

The author studies spectral asymptotic estimates at the critical energy level for \(h\)-pseudo\-dif\-fer\-en\-tial operators. He considers, in particular, \(h\)-admissible, Weyl quantized \(h\)-pseudo\-dif\-fer\-en\-tial operators. Under certain conditions, the contribution of isolated critical points is computed. The existence of a full asymptotic expansion is proved via a trace formula. The result holds for all dimensions and for singularities of any finite order. If the singularities are not integrable on the energy surface, then the order w.r.t.\ \(h\) of the spectral distributions is bigger than in the regular setting.
