Eigenvalue estimates for a three-dimensional magnetic Schrödinger operator

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider a magnetic Schrödinger operator Hh=(−ih∇−A⃗)2H^h=(-ih\nabla-\vec{A})^2 with the Dirichlet boundary conditions in an open set Ω⊂R3Ω\subset {\mathbb R}^3, where h>0h>0 is a small parameter. We suppose that the minimal value b0b_0 of the module ∣B⃗∣|\vec{B}| of the vector magnetic field B⃗\vec{B} is strictly positive, and there exists a unique minimum point of ∣B⃗∣|\vec{B}|, which is non-degenerate. The main result of the paper is upper estimates for the low-lying eigenvalues of the operator HhH^h in the semiclassical limit. We also prove the existence of an arbitrary large number of spectral gaps in the semiclassical limit in the corresponding periodic setting.
