Asymmetric Fermi surfaces for periodic Schrodinger Operators Wang, Benjamin G.

Abstract

We consider Schrödinger Operators with periodic electric and magnetic field with zero flux through a fundamental cell of the periodic lattice with dimension d. We show that, for a generic small electric/magnetic field and a generic small Fermi energy, the corresponding Fermi surface is at most dimension d-2, convex and not invariant under inversion at any point.
