Spectral properties of 2D Pauli operators with almost-periodic electromagnetic fields

Abstract: We consider a 2D Pauli operator with almost periodic field

b

and electric potential

V

. First, we study the ergodic properties of

H

and show, in particular, that its discrete spectrum is empty if there exists an almost periodic magnetic potential which generates the magnetic field

b - b_{0}

,

b_{0}

being the mean value of

b

. Next, we assume that

V = 0

, and investigate the zero modes of

H

. As expected, if

b_{0} e q 0

, then generically

o p e r a t o r n a m e d i m o p e r a t o r n a m e K e r H = i n f t y

. If

b_{0} = 0

, then for each

m i n m a t h b b N c u p i n f t y

, we construct almost periodic

b

such that

o p e r a t o r n a m e d i m o p e r a t o r n a m e K e r H = m

. This construction depends strongly on results concerning the asymptotic behavior of Dirichlet series, also obtained in the present article.
