Gap-labelling conjecture with nonzero magnetic field
Abstract
Given a constant magnetic field on Euclidean space determined by a skew-symmetric matrix , and a -invariant probability measure on the disorder set which is by hypothesis a Cantor set, where the action is assumed to be minimal, the corresponding Integrated Density of States of any self-adjoint operator affiliated to the twisted crossed product algebra , where is the multiplier on associated to , takes on values on spectral gaps in the magnetic gap-labelling group. The magnetic frequency group is defined as an explicit countable subgroup of involving Pfaffians of and its sub-matrices. We conjecture that the magnetic gap labelling group is a subgroup of the magnetic frequency group. We give evidence for the validity of our conjecture in 2D, 3D, the Jordan block diagonal case and the periodic case in all dimensions.
