Weighted CLR type bounds in two dimensions

Abstract

We derive weighted versions of the Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum inequality for the Schr\"odinger operator in two dimensions with a nontrivial Aharonov-Bohm magnetic field. Our bounds capture the optimal dependence on the flux and we identify a class of long-range potentials that saturate our bounds in the strong coupling limit. We also extend our analysis to the two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator acting on antisymmetric functions and obtain similar results.
