摘要
In this work the one-band effective Hamiltonian governing the electronic states of a quantum dot/ring in a homogenous magnetic field is used to derive a pair/quadruple of nonlinear eigenvalue problems corresponding to different spin orientations and in case of rotational symmetry additionally to quantum number±ℓ.We show,that each of those pair/quadruple of nonlinear problems allows for the minmax characterization of its eigenvalues under certain conditions,which are satisfied for our examples and the common InAs/GaAs heterojunction.Exploiting the minmax property we devise efficient iterative projection methods simultaneously handling the pair/quadruple of nonlinear problems and thereby saving up to 40%of the computational time as compared to the nonlinear Arnoldi method applied to each of the problems separately.
