We study the asymptotic distribution of the resonances near the Landau levels $\Lambda\_q =(2q+1)b$, $q \in \mathbb{N}$, of the Dirichlet (resp. Neumann, resp. Robin) realization in the exterior of a compact domain of $\mathbb{R}^3$ of the…
Let $A$ be a compact $d$-dimensional $C^2$ Riemannian manifold with boundary, embedded in ${\bf R}^m$ where $m \geq d \geq 2$, and let $B$ be a nice subset of $A$ (possibly $B=A$). Let $X_1,X_2, \ldots $ be independent random uniform points…
