Eigenvalue estimates for the magnetic Hodge Laplacian on differential forms

Abstract

In this paper we introduce the magnetic Hodge Laplacian, which is a generalization of the magnetic Laplacian on functions to differential forms. We consider various spectral results, which are known for the magnetic Laplacian on functions or for the Hodge Laplacian on differential forms, and discuss similarities and differences of this new ``magnetic-type'' operator.
