1 Introduction This paper is inspired from the nice idea of A. Hassell in [5].From the classical paper of V. Arnol’d [1], we know that quasi-modes are not always close to exact modes. Wewill show that, foralmost allRiemannian metrics on closed surfaces with an elliptic generic closed geodesicγ, there exists exact modes located onγ. Similar problems in the integrable case are discussed in several papers of J. Toth and S. Zelditch (see [8]).
