Lifshitz Tails in Constant Magnetic Fields

We consider the 2D Landau Hamiltonian $H$ perturbed by a random alloy-type potential, and investigate the Lifshitz tails, i.e. the asymptotic behavior of the corresponding integrated density of states (IDS) near the edges in the spectrum of $H$. If a given edge coincides with a Landau level, we obtain different asymptotic formulae for power-like, exponential sub-Gaussian, and super-Gaussian decay of the one-site potential. If the edge is away from the Landau levels, we impose a rational-flux assumption on the magnetic field, consider compactly supported one-site potentials, and formulate a theorem which is analogous to a result obtained in the case of a vanishing magnetic field

LpL^p-approximation of the integrated density of states for Schr\"odinger operators with finite local complexity

We study spectral properties of Schr\"odinger operators on \RR^d. The electromagnetic potential is assumed to be determined locally by a colouring of the lattice points in \ZZ^d, with the property that frequencies of finite patterns are well defined. We prove that the integrated density of states (spectral distribution function) is approximated by its finite volume analogues, i.e.the normalised eigenvalue counting functions. The convergence holds in the space $L^p(I)$ where $I$ is any finite energy interval and $1\leq p< \infty$ is arbitrary.Comment: 15 pages; v2 has minor fixe

Asymptotic Density of Eigenvalue Clusters for the Perturbed Landau Hamiltonian

We consider the Landau Hamiltonian (i.e. the 2D Schroedinger operator with constant magnetic field) perturbed by an electric potential V which decays sufficiently fast at infinity. The spectrum of the perturbed Hamiltonian consists of clusters of eigenvalues which accumulate to the Landau levels. Applying a suitable version of the anti-Wick quantization, we investigate the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues within a given cluster as the number of the cluster tends to infinity. We obtain an explicit description of the asymptotic density of the eigenvalues in terms of the Radon transform of the perturbation potential V.Comment: 30 pages.
