We analyze a general class of difference operators H-epsilon = T-epsilon + V-epsilon on l(2)(((epsilon)Z)(d)), where V-epsilon is a multi-well potential and epsilon is a small parameter. We construct approximate eigenfunctions in neighbourhoods of the different wells and give weighted l(2)-estimates for the difference of these and the exact eigenfunctions of the associated Dirichlet-operators.
We analyze a general class of difference operators containing a multi-well potential and a small parameter. We decouple the wells by introducing certain Dirichlet operators on regions containing only one potential well, and we treat the eigenvalue problem as a small perturbation of these comparison problems. We describe tunneling by a certain interaction matrix similar to the analysis for the Schrödinger operator, and estimate the remainder, which is exponentially small and roughly quadratic compared with the interaction matrix.
