In this paper we investigate the operator H=??(??) in L2 (R2), where> 0 and? is a closed C4 Jordan curve in R2. We obtain the asymptotic form of each eigenvalue of H as tends to in nity. We also get the asymptotic form of the number of negative eigenvalues of H in the strong coupling asymptotic regime. MSC: 35J10, 35P15

We observe vortex generation by selective excitation of two honeycomb sublattices at the vicinity of Dirac points. Such vortices arise from graphene “pseudospin”, suggesting that “pseudospin” could be observable and possess real angular momentum.

We investigate the operator -\Delta-lpha\delta (x-\Gamma) in -\Delta-lpha\delta (x-\Gamma) , where -\Delta-lpha\delta (x-\Gamma) is a smooth surface which is either compact or periodic and satisfies suitable regularity requirements. We find an asymptotic expansion for the lower part of the spectrum as -\Delta-lpha\delta (x-\Gamma) which involves a``two-dimensional''comparison operator determined by the geometry of the surface -\Delta-lpha\delta (x-\Gamma) . In the compact case the asymptotics concerns negative eigenvalues, in the periodic case Floquet eigenvalues. We also give a bandwidth estimate in the case when a periodic -\Delta-lpha\delta (x-\Gamma) decomposes into compact connected components. Finally, we comment on analogous systems of lower dimension and other aspects of the problem.

We derive asymptotic expansion for the spectrum of Hamiltonians with a strong attractive interaction supported by a smooth surface in R 3, either infinite and asymptotically planar, or compact and closed. Its second term is found to be determined by a Schrdinger type operator with an effective potential expressed in terms of the interaction support curvatures.
