Abstract
We define Dirac operators on S 3 (and R 3) with magnetic fields supported on smooth, oriented links and prove self-adjointness of certain (natural) extensions. We then analyze their spectral properties and show, among other things, that these operators have discrete spectrum. Certain examples, such as circles in S 3, are investigated in detail and we compute the dimension of the zero-energy eigenspace.
