Abstract
We construct the manifold of zero-energy eigenstates for a nonrelativistic spin-½ particle moving in a plane in an external magnetic field B(x)=Σn=0Nλn(xcn), with {λn} and {cn} arbitrary reals and {kn} positive integers. For a given B the ground state is infinitely degenerate and the manifold of eigenfunctions is parametrized by a point in R2(2kmax+1). For such B's we prove paramagnetism with arbitrary external potential V(x).
