Abstract

We consider a non-compact, complete manifold {\bf{M}} of finite area with cuspidal ends. The generic cusp is isomorphicto ${\bf{X}}\,\times\, ]1,+\infty [$ with metric $ds^2=(h+dy^2)/y^{2\delta}$. {\bf{X}} is a compact manifold equipped withthe metric $h$. For a one-form $A$ on {\bf{M}} such that in each cusp $A$ is a non-exact one-form on the boundary atinfinity, we prove that the magnetic Laplacian $-\Delta_A=(id+A)^\star (id+A)$ satisfies the Weyl asymptotic formulawith sharp remainder. We deduce an upper bound for the counting function of the embedded eigenvalues of theLaplace–Beltrami operator $-\Delta =-\Delta_0$.
