AI 中文摘要
我们研究了一个带电粒子被限制在包围磁单极子的立方体表面的量子力学。磁场在每个面上具有恒定大小并沿向外法线方向，保持立方体的旋转对称性。我们使用立方体表面的两个规范补丁来制定连续体问题，并表明波函数的一致性给出了狄拉克量子化条件。由于显式矢量势在普通旋转下不保持不变，我们构造规范修正的旋转算符并用它们对本征态进行分类。偶数磁单极电荷由立方旋转群O的不可约表示描述，而奇数磁单极电荷需要二元八面体群2O的旋量表示。我们用规范协变有限差分离散化计算谱，发现类似朗道能级的流形，其简并性由离散立方对称性分裂。我们还研究了离散立方体上相应的紧束缚霍夫施塔特问题。所得谱包含通常的磁子带结构以及位于立方体角附近的额外能隙态。
英文摘要
We study the quantum mechanics of a charged particle confined to the surface of a cube enclosing a magnetic monopole. The magnetic field is chosen to have a constant magnitude on each face and to point along the outward normal, preserving the rotational symmetry of the cube. We formulate the continuum problem using two gauge patches on the cube surface and show that consistency of the wavefunction gives the Dirac quantization condition. Since an explicit vector potential does not remain invariant under ordinary rotations, we construct gauge-modified rotation operators and use them to classify the eigenstates. Even monopole charges are described by the irreducible representations of the cubic rotation group O, while odd monopole charges require the spinorial representations of the binary octahedral group 2O. We compute the spectrum with a gauge-covariant finite-difference discretization and find Landau-level-like manifolds whose degeneracies are split by the discrete cubic symmetry. We also study the corresponding tight-binding Hofstadter problem on the discretized cube. The resulting spectrum contains the usual magnetic subband structure together with additional gap states localized near the cube corners.
