Effective operators on an attractive magnetic edge
[Opérateurs effectifs sur une discontinuité magnétique]
Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques, Tome 10 (2023), pp. 917-944.

Cet article s’intéresse au laplacien avec champ magnétique discontinu dans la limite semi-classique. Le champ est supposé prendre exactement deux valeurs non nulles de signes opposés et changer de signe le long d’une courbe fermée et régulière, la « frontière magnétique ». Nous établissons diverses asymptotiques spectrales à l’aide d’une réduction de dimension mettant en jeu une localisation dans l’espace des phases et permettant de traiter la discontinuité du champ magnétique.

The semiclassical Laplacian with discontinuous magnetic field is considered in two dimensions. The magnetic field is sign changing with exactly two distinct values and is discontinuous along a smooth closed curve, thereby producing an attractive magnetic edge. Various accurate spectral asymptotics are established by means of a dimensional reduction involving a microlocal phase space localization allowing to deal with the discontinuity of the field.
