Abstract.We consider the effect of a magnetic field for the semiclassical asymptotics of the trace of the heat kernel for the Schrödinger operator. We discuss the case where the operator has compact resolvents in spite of the fact that the electric potential is degenerate on some submanifold. According to the degree of the degeneracy, we obtain the various semiclassical asymptotics of eigenvalues.
