We consider the quantum mechanics of an electron confined to move on an infinite cylinder in the presence of a uniform radial magnetic field. This problem is in certain ways very similar to the corresponding problem on the infinite plane.…
We study the Ginzburg-Landau equations on Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus. In particular: - we construct explicitly the (local moduli space of gauge-equivalent) solutions in a neighbourhood of the constant curvature ones; - classify…
The Landau problem on the flag manifold ${\bf F}_2 = SU(3)/U(1)\times U(1)$ is analyzed from an algebraic point of view. The involved magnetic background is induced by two U(1) abelian connections. In quantizing the theory, we show that the…
We prove a normal form for strong magnetic fields on a closed, oriented surface and use it to derive two dynamical results for the associated flow. First, we show the existence of KAM tori and trapping regions provided a natural…
We investigate the gravitational effect on Landau levels. We show that the familiar infinite Landau degeneracy of the energy levels of a quantum particle moving inside a uniform and constant magnetic field is removed by the interaction of…
In this paper, we define a class of new geometric flows on a complete Riemannian manifold. The new flow is related to the generalized (third order) Landau-Lifishitz equation. On the other hand it could be thought of a special case of the…
We briefly review the recent developments in magnetohydrodynamics, which in particular deal with the evolution of magnetic fields in turbulent plasmas. We especially emphasize (i) the necessity of renormalizing equations of motion in…
Two-dimensional systems in magnetic fields host rich physics, most notably the quantum Hall effect arising from Landau level quantization. In a broad class of two-dimensional models, flat bands with topologically nontrivial band…
The motion of a charged particle moving on a flat surface is studied through the constants of motion associated to the system, given the magnetic gauge. The usual Landau' solution and the non separable solution for the Landau's gauge are…
Landau levels have represented a very rich field of research, which has gained widespread attention after their application to quantum Hall effect. In a particular gauge, the holomorphic gauge, they give a physical implementation of…
We establish the existence of saddle points for a free boundary problem describing the two-dimensional free surface of a ferrofluid which undergoes normal field instability (also known as Rosensweig instability). The starting point consists…
The spectrum of charged particles in translation-invariant systems in a magnetic field is characterized by the Landau levels, which play a fundamental role in the thermodynamic and transport properties of solids. The topological nature and…
We are concerned with the global existence of finite energy weak solutions to 3D density-dependent magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) system with Hall-effect set in a general smooth bounded domain. The perfectly conducting wall boundary condition…
The dynamics of ionization fronts that generate a conducting body, are in simplest approximation equivalent to viscous fingering without regularization. Going beyond this approximation, we suggest that ionization fronts can be modeled by a…
We prove the existence of dynamical delocalization for random Landau Hamiltonians near each Landau level. Since typically there is dynamical localization at the edges of each disordered-broadened Landau band, this implies the existence of…
We study the level lines of a Gaussian free field in a planar domain with general boundary data $F$. We show that the level lines exist as continuous curves under the assumption that $F$ is regulated (i.e., admits left and right limits at…
Given a bounded domain $G \subset \R^d$, $d\geq 3$, we study smooth solutions of a linear parabolic equation with non-constant coefficients in $G$, which at the boundary have to $C^1$-match with some harmonic function in $\R^d \setminus…
We present, for the first time, the structure of the axisymmetric force-free magnetosphere of an aligned rotating magnetic dipole, in the case in which there exists a sufficiently large charge density (whose origin we do not question) to…
We discuss hypersurface motions in Riemannian manifolds whose normal velocity is a function of the induced hypersurface volume element and derive a second order partial differential equation for the corresponding time function $\tau(x)$ at…
