Abstract
In this work we consider the two-dimensional Dirac operator with general local singular interactions supported on a closed curve. A systematic study of the interaction is performed by decomposing it into a linear combination of four elementary interactions: electrostatic, Lorentz scalar, magnetic, and a fourth one which can be absorbed by using unitary transformations. We address the self-adjointness and the spectral description of the underlying Dirac operator. In the non-critical case, we do so by providing a boundary triple, and in the critical purely magnetic case, by exploiting the phenomenon of confinement and super-symmetry. Moreover, we justify our model by showing that Dirac operators with singular interactions are limits in the strong resolvent sense of Dirac operators with regular potentials.
