Abstract

We discuss two approaches that can be used to obtain the asymptotics of Hermite polynomials. The first, well-known approach is based on the representation of Hermite polynomials as solutions of a spectral problem for the harmonic oscillator Schrödinger equation. The second approach is based on a reduction of the finite-difference equation for the Hermite polynomials to a pseudodifferential equation. Associated with each of the approaches are Lagrangian manifolds that give the asymptotics of Hermite polynomials via the Maslov canonical operator.
