First, we study the structure and smoothness of the operator range of various powers of the half-plane resolvent. Second, we provide a complete analysis of the diamagnetic current density at positive temperature: we prove that bulk and edge current densities are smooth functions and we show that the edge current density converges to the bulk current density faster than any polynomial in the inverse distance from the boundary. Our proofs are based on gauge covariant magnetic perturbation theory and on a detailed analysis of the integral kernels of functions of magnetic Schr\\\"odinger operators on the half-plane.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-01-21T18:05:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35J10", "47A10", "81Q10", "81V70" ], "keywords": [ "positive temperature", "regularity properties", "gauge covariant magnetic perturbation theory", "quantum hall effect setup", "bulk current density faster" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
