Electromagnetic fields acting on particles have been extensively studied in different areas of physics. In quantum mechanics for example, effects such as Aharonov-Bohm, Landau levels and Hall conductivity, have always motivated new papers including analogous inertial models. Inertial effects play an important role in classical mechanics, but have been largely ignored in quantum mechanics. However, the analogy between inertial forces on mass particles and electromagnetic forces on charged particles is not new. Another factor that may influence the classical and quantum behavior of particles is geometry. An element related to geometry that has been extensively studied in several areas is the topological defect. Topological defects represent an interface between areas such as cosmology, gravitation, and condensed matter. Such defects in condensed matter can be developed through the classical theory of elasticity. However, due to the interdisciplinarity of this theme, approaches from gravitation can also describe them. Based on this analogy, the medium formed by a topological defect is characterized by a metric tensor. From this approach, several problems can be discussed by analyzing the influence of the topological defect in the solution of the problem. In this work, it will be discussed how magnetic field, rotation and topological defects, especially the disclination, influence in the Landau Levels and the Hall conductivity for a noninteracting planar two-dimensional electron gas. First we will discuss the influence of each of these elements and then the influence of all of them simultaneously.
