Magnetic Schroedinger operators and twisted crossed product
[ Abstract ]
During this seminar, we shall study spectral properties of generalized
magnetic Schroedinger operators H(B,V) with anisotropic magnetic field B
and scalar potential V. The essential spectrum of such operators is
expressed as a union of spectra of some asymptotic operators supported by
the quasi-orbits of a suitable dynamical system. A localization property
of the functional calculus of H(B,V) will also be presented. It directly
implies a non-propagation result for the unitary group generated by this
operator. The proofs rely on the use of twisted crossed product
C*-algebras. Twisted dynamical systems and their corresponding algebras
will be introduced and the natural link with magnetic Schroedinger
operators will be clearly established.
