The kinetic energy of electrons in a magnetic field is quenched resulting in a discrete set of highly degenerate Landau levels (LLs) which gives rise to fascinating phenomena such as the de Haas–van Alphen effect (dHvAe) or the integer and fractional quantum Hall effects. The latter is a result of interactions partially lifting the degeneracy within a given LL while inter-LL interactions are usually assumed to be unimportant. Here, we study the LL spectrum of the Hatsugai-Kohmoto model, a Hubbard-like model which is exactly soluble on account of infinite-range interactions. For the doped Mott insulator phase in a magnetic field we find that the degeneracy of LLs is preserved but inter-LL interactions are important leading to a nonmonotonous reconstruction of the spectrum. As a result, strong LL repulsion leads to aperiodic quantum oscillations of the dHvAe in contrast to Onsager's famous relation connecting oscillation frequencies with the Fermi surface areas at zero field. In addition, we find unconventional temperature dependencies of quantum oscillations with interaction-induced effective mass renormalizations. We discuss the general importance of inter-LL interactions for understanding doped Mott insulators in magnetic fields.     «
