Abstract: The Guillemin–Uribe trace formula is a semiclassical version of the Selberg trace formula and the more general Duistermaat–Guillemin formula for elliptic operators on compact manifolds, which reflects the dynamics of magnetic geodesic flows in terms of eigenvalues of a natural differential operator (the magnetic Laplacian) associated with the magnetic field. This paper gives a survey of basic notions and results related to the Guillemin–Uribe trace formula and provides concrete examples of its computation for two-dimensional constant curvature surfaces with constant magnetic fields and for the Katok example.

Keywords: trace formula, magnetic Laplacian, magnetic geodesics.
