We consider the Pauli operator in $\mathbb R^3$ for magnetic fields in $L^{3/2}$ that decay at infinity as $|x|^{-2-\beta}$ with $\beta > 0$. In this case we are able to prove that the existence of a zero mode for this operator is…
Two results are proved for $\mathrm{nul} \mathbb{P}_A$, the dimension of the kernel of the Pauli operator $\mathbb{P}_A = \bigl\{\bbf{\sigma} \cdotp \bigl(\frac{1}{i} \bbf{\nabla} + \vec{A} \bigr) \bigr\} ^2 $ in $[L^2 (\mathbb{R}^3)]^2$:…
We consider the two-dimensional Pauli operator perturbed by a weakly coupled, attractive potential. We show that besides the eigenvalues arising from the Aharonov-Casher zero modes there are two or one (depending on whether the flux of the…
This paper is devoted to semiclassical estimates of the eigenvalues of the Pauli operator on a bounded open set whose boundary carries Dirichlet conditions. Assuming that the magnetic field is positive and a few generic conditions, we…
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and consider the magnetic Laplace operator given by $ H(A) = \left(- i\nabla - A(x)\right)^2$, where $A:\Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^d$, subject to Dirichlet eigenfunction. This operator can, for certain…
We define the two dimensional Pauli operator and identify its core for magnetic fields that are regular Borel measures. The magnetic field is generated by a scalar potential hence we bypass the usual $\bA\in L^2_{loc}$ condition on the…
We study the Pauli operator in a two-dimensional, connected domain with Neumann or Robin boundary condition. We prove a sharp lower bound on the number of negative eigenvalues reminiscent of the Aharonov-Casher formula. We apply this lower…
We establish that the Pauli operator describing a spin-1/2 two-dimensional quantum system with a singular magnetic field has, under certain conditions, an infinite-dimensional space of zero modes, possibly, both spin-up and spin-down,…
By the Aharonov-Casher theorem, the Pauli operator $P$ has no zero eigenvalue when the normalized magnetic flux $\alpha$ satisfies $|\alpha|<1$, but it does have a zero energy resonance. We prove that in this case a Lieb-Thirring inequality…
A maximal realisation of the two-dimensional Pauli operator, subject to Aharonov--Bohm magnetic field, is investigated. Contrary to the case of the Pauli operator with regular magnetic potentials, it is shown that both components of the…
We consider the spectrum of a two-dimensional Pauli operator with a compactly supported electric potential and a variable magnetic field with a positive mean value. The rate of accumulation of eigenvalues to zero is described in terms of…
We consider the strong field asymptotics for the occurrence of zero modes of certain Weyl-Dirac operators on $\mathbb{R}^3$. In particular we are interested in those operators $\mathcal{D}_{B}$ for which the associated magnetic field $B$ is…
The Pauli operator describes the energy of a nonrelativistic quantum particle with spin 1/2 in a magnetic field and an external potential. A new Lieb-Thirring type inequality on the sum of the negative eigenvalues is presented. The main…
Let $\Omega$ be either $\mathbb{R}^n$ or an unbounded strongly Lipschitz domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and $\Phi$ be a continuous, strictly increasing, subadditive and positive function on $(0,\infty)$ of upper type 1 and of strictly critical…
We make a complete analysis of the controllability properties from the exterior of the (possible) strong damping wave equation with the fractional Laplace operator subject to the nonhomogeneous Dirichlet type exterior condition. In the…
We study the asymptotic behavior, as Planck's constant $\hbar\to 0$, of the number of discrete eigenvalues and the Riesz means of Pauli and Dirac operators with a magnetic field $\mu\mathbf{B}(x)$ and an electric field. The magnetic field…
It is well-known that, due to the interaction between the spin and the magnetic field, the two-dimensional Pauli operator has an eigenvalue $0$ at the threshold of its essential spectrum. We show that when perturbed by an effectively…
We consider a 2D Pauli operator with almost periodic field $b$ and electric potential $V$. First, we study the ergodic properties of $H$ and show, in particular, that its discrete spectrum is empty if there exists an almost periodic…
The Pauli operator describes the energy of a nonrelativistic quantum particle with spin 1/2 in a magnetic field and an external potential. Bounds on the sum of the negative eigenvalues are called magnetic Lieb-Thirring (MLT) inequalities.…
We study the self-adjoint Pauli operators that can be realized as the square of a self-adjoint Dirac operator and correspond to a magnetic field consisting of a finite number of Aharonov-Bohm solenoids and a regular part, and prove an…
