Eigenvalues in gaps of perturbed periodic Dirac operators: numerical evidence

摘要

This paper presents a method for the numerical investigation of the distribution of the eigenvalues introduced into a spectral gap of a periodic Dirac system by a perturbation of the type of the angular momentum term. A number of examples illustrate the effectiveness of the method and show the remarkable accuracy of the strong coupling asymptotic formula even for small values of the perturbation coupling constant. Furthermore, the results shed some light on the spectrum in the exceptional gap of radially periodic three-dimensional Dirac operators.
