We consider the Schr\"odinger operator with a periodic potential on a quasi 1D continuous periodic model of armchair nanotubes in $\R^3$ in a uniform magnetic field (with amplitude $B\in \R$), which is parallel to the axis of the nanotube.…

Let $V$ be a potential on $\RR^3$ that is smooth everywhere except at a discrete set $\maS$ of points, where it has singularities of the form $Z/\rho^2$, with $\rho(x) = |x - p|$ for $x$ close to $p$ and $Z$ continuous on $\RR^3$ with $Z(p)…
