Magnetic localization and spectral asymmetry of a charged particle at a screw dislocation

The study investigates how a charged particle's motion is affected by a spiral dislocation in a uniform magnetic field. The global geometry, specifically the 'screw identification,' couples conserved quantities, leading to an energy spectrum with orientation-dependent shifts. This reveals that the screw parameter influences localization and spectral asymmetry through its effect on angular momentum.
