Trace formula for the magnetic Laplacian at zero energy level

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the trace formula for the magnetic Laplacian associated with a magnetic system on a compact manifold. This formula is a natural generalization of Gutzwiller's semiclassical trace formula and reduces to it in the case when the magnetic field form is exact. It differs slightly from the Guillemin-Uribe trace formula considered in a previous paper of the author and Taimanov. Moreover, in contrast to that paper, the focus is on the trace formula at the zero energy level, which is a critical energy level. An overview of the main notions and results related to the trace formula at the zero energy level is presented, various approaches to its proof are described, and concrete examples of its computation are given. In addition, a brief review of Gutzwiller's trace formula for regular and critical energy levels is presented. Bibliography: 88 titles.
