The Zeeman splitting of localized electrons in a quantum dot in the Kondo regime is studied using a new slave-boson formulation. Our results show that the Kondo peak splitting depends on the gate potential applied to the quantum dot and on the topology of the system. A common fact of any geometry is that the differential susceptibility shows a strong non linear behavior. It was shown that there exist a critical field above which the Kondo resonance is splitted out. This critical field rapidly diminishes when the gate potential is lowered, as a consequence of the reduction of the Kondo temperature and a subsequent strong enhancement in the differential susceptibility occurring at low fields. The critical field is also strong depedent on the topology of the circuit. Above this critical field the Zeeman splitting depends linearly upon the magnetic field and does not extrapolate to zero at zero field. The magnitude of the Y-intercept coordinate depends on the gate potential but the slope of this function is not renormalized being independent of the value of the gate potential. Our results are in agreement with very recent experiments.
