Threshold singularities of the spectral shift function for geometric perturbations of magnetic Hamiltonians

Abstract: We consider the 3D Schr"odinger operator

H_{0}

with constant magnetic field

B

of scalar intensity

b > 0

, and its perturbations

H_{+}

(resp.,

H_{-}

) obtained by imposing Dirichlet (resp., Neumann) conditions on the boundary of the bounded domain

O m e g a_{m i n} s u b s e t {m a t h b b R}^{3}

. We introduce the Krein spectral shift functions

x i (E; H_{p} m, H_{0})

,

E g e q 0

, for the operator pairs

(H_{p} m, H_{0})

, and study their singularities at the Landau levels

L a m b d a_{q} : = b (2 q + 1)

,

q i n {m a t h b b Z}_{+}

, which play the role of thresholds in the spectrum of

H_{0}

. We show that

x i (E; H_{+}, H_{0})

remains bounded as

E u p a r r o w L a m b d a_{q}

,

q i n {m a t h b b Z}_{+}

being fixed, and obtain three asymptotic terms of

x i (E; H_{-}, H_{0})

as

E u p a r r o w L a m b d a_{q}

, and of

x i (E; H_{p} m, H_{0})

as

E d o w n a r r o w L a m b d a_{q}

. The first two terms are independent of the perturbation while the third one involves the {em logarithmic capacity} of the projection of

O m e g a_{m i n}

onto the plane perpendicular to

B

.
