Small elliptical deformations are enough to alter the precessional characteristics at low magnetic fields. We obtain approximate expressions for the modified g factor including weak Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit terms. For more intense couplings numerical calculations are performed. We also study the influence of the magnetic field orientation on the spin splitting and the related anisotropy of the g factor. Spin-orbit coupling effects can reproduce the experimental spin-splittings reported by Hanson et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 196802 (2003)] for a one-electron dot. For dots containing more electrons, Coulomb interaction effects are estimated within the local-spin-density approximation, showing that many features of the non-iteracting system are qualitatively preserved.This work was supported by Grant No. BFM2002-03241 from DGI (Spain).Peer reviewedAmerican Physical Society200820082004info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_65012373 bytes1465337 bytestext/plainapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/7525reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
