Semiclassical analysis for a Schr\"odinger operator with a U(2) artificial gauge: the periodic case

Mathematical Physics 2014-06-25 v2 math.MP

Abstract

We consider a Schr\"odinger operator with a Hermitian 2x2 matrix-valued potential which is lattice periodic and can be diagonalized smoothly on the whole Rn.R^n. In the case of potential taking its minimum only on the lattice, we prove that the well-known semiclassical asymptotic of first band spectrum for a scalar potential remains valid for our model.
