When the latter generates a simple rotation we show that a Weyl-Dirac operator with such a magnetic field cannot have a zero mode. In particular this allows us to expand the class of non zero mode producing magnetic fields to include examples of non-trivial smooth compactly supported fields.", keywords = "Weyl-Dirac operator, zero modes", issn = "1232-9274" }
