Abstract: (WSP)
In this paper we present a model where the modified Landau-like levels of charged particles in a magnetic field are determined due to the modified smoothness of \BbbR4 as underlying structure of the Minkowski spacetime. The standard smoothness of \BbbR4 is shifted to the exotic Rk4{\mathbb R}_{k}{4}, k = 2p, p = 1, 2, \dots. This is achieved by superstring theory using gravitational backreaction induced from a strong, almost constant magnetic field on standard \BbbR4. The exact string background containing flat \BbbR4 is replaced consistently by the curved geometry of SU(2)k * \BbbR as part of the modified exact backgrounds. This corresponds to the change of smoothness on \BbbR4 from the standard \BbbR4 to some exotic Rk4{\mathbb R}_{k}{4}. The calculations of the spectra are using the CFT marginal deformations and Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models. The marginal deformations capture the effects of the magnetic field as well as its gravitational backreactions. The spectra depend on even level k of WZW on SU(2). At the same time the WZ term as element of H3(SU(2), \BbbR) determines also the exotic smooth Rk4{\mathbb R}_{k}{4}. As the consequence we obtain that a nonzero mass-gap induced by the exotic Rk4{\mathbb R}_{k}{4} emerges in the spectrum.
