Abstract
The objects of the present study are one-parameter semigroups generated by Schrödinger operators with fairly general electromagnetic potentials. More precisely, we allow scalar potentials from the Kato class and impose on the vector potentials only local Kato-like conditions. The configuration space is supposed to be an arbitrary open subset of multi-dimensional Euclidean space; in case that it is a proper subset, the Schrödinger operator is rendered symmetric by imposing Dirichlet boundary conditions. We discuss the continuity of the image functions of the semigroup and show local-norm-continuity of the semigroup in the potentials. Finally, we prove that the semigroup has a continuous integral kernel given by a Brownian-bridge expectation. Altogether, the article is meant to extend some of the results in B. Simon's landmark paper [Bull. Amer. Math. Soc.7 (1982) 447] to non-zero vector potentials and more general configuration spaces.
