Einstein–Brillouin–Keller method

The Einstein–Brillouin–Keller method (EBK) is a semiclassical method (named for Albert Einstein, Léon Brillouin, and Joseph B. Keller) ) used to compute eigenvalues in quantum mechanical systems.[1] There have been a number of recent results on computational issues related to this topic, for example, the work of Eric J. Heller and Emmanuel David Tannenbaum using a partial differential equation gradient descent approach.[2]
