T. Hupfer et al., The absolute continuity of the integrated density of states for magnetic Schrodinger operators with certain unbounded random potentials, COMM MATH P, 221(2), 2001, pp. 229-254
The object of the present study is the integrated density of states of a qu
antum particle in multi-dimensional Euclidean space which is characterized
by a Schrodinger operator with magnetic field and a random potential which
may be unbounded from above and below. In case that the magnetic field is c
onstant and the random potential is ergodic and admits a so-called one-para
meter decomposition, we prove the absolute continuity of the integrated den
sity of states and provide explicit upper bounds on its derivative, the den
sity of states. This local Lipschitz continuity of the integrated density o
f states is derived by establishing a Wegner estimate for finite-volume Sch
rodinger operators which holds for rather general magnetic fields and diffe
rent boundary conditions. Examples of random potentials to which the result
s apply are certain alloy-type and Gaussian random potentials. Besides we s
how a diamagnetic inequality for Schrodinger operators with Neumann boundar
y conditions.
