DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Marie Fialová\nhosted by Robert Seiringer\nAbstract: 
 Classically\, if we have a magnetic field that is confined to a region of 
 space and a charged particle moves outside that region\, the particle cann
 ot feel any effect of the field. In quantum mechanics the situation change
 s as a particle encircling a solenoid gathers a phase shift dependent on 
 the magnetic flux enclosed by its trajectory\, despite moving in region wh
 ere the magnetic field vanishes. This phenomenon is called the Aharonov--B
 ohm effect. We investigate the number of zero modes (i.e. the degeneracy o
 f the zero eigenvalue) of the Dirac operator describing a charged particle
  with spin confined to a plane with holes that contain such Aharonov--Boh
 m solenoids. For the domain of the Dirac operator we consider the global A
 tiyah--Patodi--Singer (APS) boundary condition which was introduced in the
  70s by APS in connection with the index theorem on manifolds with bounda
 ry. We find that the number of zero modes depends only on the flux of the
  magnetic field. The result is a generalisation of the Aharonov–Casher 
 theorem. The talk is based on my PhD project adviced by Jan Philip Solovej
 .
