Computations of the first eigenpairs for the Schrödinger operator with magnetic field

Abstract

This paper is devoted to computations of eigenvalues and eigenvectors for the Schrödinger operator with constant magnetic field in a domain with corners, as the semi-classical parameter $h$ tends to $0$. The eigenvectors corresponding to the smallest eigenvalues concentrate in the corners: They have a two-scale structure, consisting of a corner layer at scale $\sqrt h$ and an oscillatory term at scale $h$. The high frequency oscillations make the numerical computations particularly delicate. We propose a high order finite element method to overcome this difficulty. Relying on such a discretization, we illustrate theoretical results on plane sectors, squares, and other straight or curved polygons. We conclude by discussing convergence issues.
