On the Asymptotics of the Schrödinger Equation Solutions and the Euler Model of an Ideal Fluid

Abstract

In this paper we analyze the asymptotics of the Schrödinger equation solutions with respect to a small parameter ~. It is well known, that short- waveasymptoticstosolutionsofthisequationleadstothepairofequations— the Hamilton–Jacobi equation for the phase and the continuity equation. These equations coincide with the ones for the potential flows of an ideal fluid. The wave function is invariant with respect to the complex plane rotations group, and the asymptotics is constructed as a point-dependent action of this group on some function that is found by solving the transfer equation. It is shown in the paper, that if the Heisenberg group is used instead of the rotation group, then the limit of the equations solutions with ~ tending to zero leads to the equations for vortex flows of an ideal fluid in a potential field of forces. If the original Schrödinger equation is nonlinear, then equations for barotropic processes in an ideal fluid are obtained.
