Abstract: This note is motivated by Evans (2004) and Anantharaman (2004). We study the semiclassical measure arising from the operator $ P(h)=-{h^2\over 2}\Delta +V(x)$ when the potential $ V$ has degenerate minimum points. We will use the technique of integration by parts and some identities of Evans to derive information on the support of the measure.
