Abstract
We derive a boundary integral equation to compute the eigenvalues of t wo-dimensional billiards subjected to a magnetic field. The integral r equires the Green's function of the boundary-free problem with the mag netic field pointing in the opposite direction. This Green's function is computed for the case of a constant magnetic field perpendicular to the billiard and some applications ate discussed. The elliptical bill iard is then studied numerically as an example of a nontrivial applica tion.
