We establish WKB estimates for 2 × 2 linear dynamic systems with a s mall parameter ε on a time
scale unifying continuous and discrete WKB method. We introduce an adiabatic invariant for 2 ×
2 dynamic system on a time scale, which is a generalization of adiabatic invariant of Lorentz’s
pendulum. As an application we prove that the change of adiabatic invariant is vanishing as ε
approaches zero. This result was known before only for a continuous time scale. We show that it is
true for the discrete scale only for the appropriate choice of graininess depending on a parameter
ε. The proof is based on the truncation of WKB s eries and WKB estimates.

where v

WKB method 1, 2 is a powerful method of the description of behavior of solutions
of 1.1 by using asymptotic expansions. It was developed by Carlini 1817, Liouville, Green
1837 and became very useful in the development of quantum mechanics in 1920 1, 3.The
discrete WKB approximation was introduced and developed in 4–8.
The calculus of times scales was initiated by Aulbach and Hilger 9–11 to unify the
discrete and continuous analysis.
In this paper, we are developing WKB approximations for the linear dynamic systems

on a time scale to unify the discrete and continuous WKB theory. Our formulas for WKB series
2 Advances in Difference Equations
are based on the representation of fundamental solutions of dynamic system 1.1 given in
12. Note that the WKB estimate see 2.21 below has double asymptotical character and it
shows that the error could be made small by either ε→0, or t→∞.
It is well known 13, 14 that the change of adiabatic invariant of harmonic oscillator
is vanishing with the exponential speed as ε approaches zero, if the frequency is an analytic
function.
In this paper, we prove that for the discrete harmonic oscillator even for a harmonic
oscillator on a time scale the change of adiabatic invariant approaches zero with the power
speed when the graininess depends on a parameter ε in a special way.
A time scale T is an arbitrary nonempty closed subset of the real numbers. If T has a
left-scattered minimum m, then T
k
 T − m, otherwise T
k
 T. Here we consider the time
scales with t ≥ t
0
, and sup T  ∞.
For t ∈ T, we define forward jump operator
σtinf{s ∈ T,s>t}. 1.3
The forward graininess function μ : T→0, ∞ is defined by
μtσt − t. 1.4
If σt >t, we say that t is right scattered. If t<∞ and σtt, then t is called right dense.
For f : T→R and t ∈ T
k
define the delta see 10, 11 derivative f
Δ
t to be the

number provided it exists with the property that f or given any >0, there exist a δ>0and
a neighborhood U t − δ, t  δ ∩ T of t such that
|fσt − fs − f
