Abstract
We carry out a preliminary investigation of electron dynamics in a quantum well subject to a uniform magnetic field applied parallel to its walls. To achieve exact expressions for the Green´s function and associated dispersion relation, we study the narrow limit of a delta-function well profile. The Dyson equation is solved and the dispersion relation is examined for weak and strong (quantizing) magnetic fields.
