Abstract

This paper is devoted to the study of Lifshits tails for weak random magnetic perturbations of periodic Schrödinger operators acting on L2(Rd) of the form Hλ,w=(−i∇−λ∑γ∈ZdwγA2(⋅−γ))+V, where V is a Zd-periodic potential, λ is positive coupling constants, (wγ)γ∈Zd are i.i.d and bounded random variables and is the single site vector magnetic potential. We prove that, for λ small, at an open band edge, a true Lifshits tail for the random magnetic Schrödinger operator occurs if a certain set of conditions on H0=−Δ+V and on A holds.
