Popis: We study the Pauli operator in a two-dimensional, connected domain with Neumann or Robin boundary condition. We prove a sharp lower bound on the number of negative eigenvalues reminiscent of the Aharonov-Casher formula. We apply this lower bound to obtain a new formula on the number of eigenvalues of the magnetic Neumann Laplacian in the semi-classical limit. Our approach relies on reduction to a boundary Dirac operator. We analyze this boundary operator in two different ways. The first approach uses Atiyah-Patodi-Singer index theory. The second approach relies on a conservation law for the Benjamin-Ono equation.
