| Apr 25, 2021 at 22:12 | comment | added | Christian Remling | I think from a formal point of view, the problem here is that $h\to 0$ in the OP doesn't in an obvious way correspond to pushing the wells apart by sending $f\to\infty$. Rather, it seems equivalent to a rescaling $V(x)\to V(hx)$ of a potential (which does push them out to infinity, but also changes their shape). | |
