We study the 3D Neuman magnetic Laplacian in the presence of a semi-classical parameter and a non-uniform magnetic field with constant intensity. We determine a sharp two term asymptotics for the lowest eigenvalue, where the second term…
We consider the quantum mechanics of a particle on the coset superspace $SU(2|1)/[U(1)\times U(1)]$, which is a super-flag manifold with $SU(2)/U(1)\cong S^2$ `body'. By incorporating the Wess-Zumino terms associated with the $U(1)\times…
A method, analogous to supersymmetry transformation in quantum mechanics, is developed for a particle in the lowest Landau level moving in an arbitrary potential. The method is applied to two-dimensional potentials formed by Dirac delta…
We show that in a very strong magnetic field $B$ electron-phonon interaction gives rise to a splitting of Landau levels of a 2D electron into a series of infinitely degenerate sublevels. We provide both qualitative and quantitative…
Magnetars are neutron stars endowed with surface magnetic fields of the order of $10^{14}-10^{15}$~G, and with presumably much stronger fields in their interior. As a result of Landau quantization of electron motion, the neutron-drip…
Analogous to Landau quantization related to a neutral particle possessing an electric quadrupole moment, we generalize such Landau quantization to include position-dependent mass (PDM) neutral particles. Using cylindrical coordinates, the…
We study the magnetization process of the $S=1$ Heisenberg model on a two-leg ladder with farther neighbor spin-exchange interaction. We consider the interaction that couples up to the next-nearest neighbor rungs and find an exactly…
For quantum Hall systems, in the limit of large magnetic field (or equivalently small electron band mass $m_b$), the static response of electrons to a spatially varying magnetic field is largely determined by kinetic energy considerations.…

Kinetics of spatially uniform distribution of 2D electrons in crossed electric and magnetic fields in the presence of microwave radiation has been studied. In the present model the contribution from the microwave radiation and the effects…
The effect of the uniform magnetic field on the electron in the spherically symmetric square-well potential is studied. A transcendental equation that determines the electron energy spectrum is derived. The approximate value of the lowest…
A generalized semiclassical quantization condition for cyclotron orbits was recently proposed by Gao and Niu \cite{Gao}, that goes beyond the Onsager relation \cite{Onsager}. In addition to the integrated density of states, it formally…
We study the ground state of a clean two-dimensional electron liquid in a weak magnetic field where $N \gg 1$ lower Landau levels are completely filled and the upper level is partially filled. It is shown that the electrons at the upper…
The present paper extends the classical second-order variational problem of Herglotz type to the more general context of the Euclidean sphere S^n following variational and optimal control approaches. The relation between the Hamiltonian…

We consider a system of two interacting particles with like but unequal charges in a magnetic field in the planar geometry. We construct a complete basis of states compatible with both the axial symmetry and magnetic translations. The basis…
This is the second of two papers devoted to tight-binding electronic spectra on graphs with the topology of the sphere. We investigate the problem of an electron subject to a spin-orbit interaction generated by the radial electric field of…
