Abstract: This paper is devoted to the asymptotic analysis of the eigenvalues of the Laplace operator with a strong magnetic field and Robin boundary condition on a smooth planar domain and with a negative boundary parameter. We study the singular limit when the Robin parameter tends to infinity which is equivalent to a semi-classical limit involving a small positive semi-classical parameter. The main result is a comparison between the spectrum of the Robin Laplacian with an effective operator defined on the boundary of the domain via the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. More precisely, the low-lying eigenvalue of the Robin Laplacian is approximated by the those of the effective operator. When the curvature has a unique non-degenerate maximum, we estimate the spectral gap and find that the magnetic field does not contribute to the three-term expansion of the eigenvalues. In the case of the disc domains, the eigenvalue asymptotics displays the contribution of the magnetic field explicitly.
