Scaling asymptotics for ladder sequences of spherical harmonics at caustic latitudes
Abstract
We study the concentration of ladder sequences of spherical harmonics on caustic latitude circles. We prove that they have Airy scaling asymptotics. We also determine the weak* limit of certain empirical measures of L2 norms of restrictions of spherical harmonics to these latitude circles.
