Witten-Helffer-Sjöstrand theory for -equivariant cohomology

Given an -invariant Morse function and an -invariant Riemannian metric , a family of finite dimensional subcomplexes , , of the Witten deformation of the -equivariant de Rham complex is constructed, by studying the asymptotic behavior of the spectrum of the corresponding Laplacian as . In fact the spectrum of can be separated into the small eigenvalues, finite eigenvalues and the large eigenvalues. Then one obtains as the complex of eigenforms corresponding to the small eigenvalues of . This permits us to verify the -equivariant Morse inequalities. Moreover suppose is self-indexing and satisfies the Morse-Smale condition, then it is shown that this family of subcomplexes converges as to a geometric complex which is induced by and calculates the -equivariant cohomology of .
