Abstract

To analyze differential operators whose WKB solutions admit infinitely many phases, we introduce a class of differential operators of WKB type and analyze their exact WKB theoretic structure near their turning points. Our analysis makes full use of techniques and ideas in microlocal analysis; we use a quantized contact transformation to construct a WKB solution of a differential equation of WKB type, and we use a Späth-type division theorem for a differential operator of WKB type to study its structure near turning points. As an application, we show a connection formula for WKB solutions near a simple turning point.
