Two systems of hyperbolic equations, arising in the multiphase semiclassical limit of the linear Schr\"odinger equations, are investigated. One stems from a Wigner measure analysis and uses a closure by the Delta functions, whereas the other relies on the classical WKB expansion and uses the Heaviside functions for closure. The two resulting moment systems are weakly and non-strictly hyperbolic respectively. They provide two different Eulerian methods able to reproduce superimposed signals with a finite number of phases. Analytical properties of these moment systems are investigated and compared. Efficient numerical discretizations and test-cases with increasing difficulty are presented.

Abstract
Two systems of hyperbolic equations, arising in the multiphase semiclassical limit of the linear Schr\"odinger equations, are investigated. One stems from a Wigner measure analysis and uses a closure by the Delta functions, whereas the other relies on the classical WKB expansion and uses the Heaviside functions for closure. The two resulting moment systems are weakly and non-strictly hyperbolic respectively. They provide two different Eulerian methods able to reproduce superimposed signals with a finite number of phases. Analytical properties of these moment systems are investigated and compared. Efficient numerical discretizations and test-cases with increasing difficulty are presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
