Abstract
We present ab initio calculations of one-electron quantum electrodynamical corrections to the second-order Zeeman splitting for the , , and states in highly charged hydrogen-like ions. The self-energy correction is evaluated using the rigorous QED approach. The vacuum-polarization correction is evaluated within the electric-loop approximation. Calculations are performed for a wide range of nuclear charge number: .
