The Dirichlet Laplacian in a curved three-dimensional tube built along a spatial (bounded or unbounded) curve is investigated in the limit when the uniform cross-section of the tube diminishes. Both deformations due to bending and twisting…

The model problem of a plane angle for a second-order elliptic system subject to Dirichlet, mixed, and Neumann boundary conditions is analyzed. For each boundary condition, the existence of solutions of the form $r^\lambda v$ is reduced to…
We consider Laplacians on periodic metric graphs with unit-length edges. The spectrum of these operators consists of an absolutely continuous part (which is a union of an infinite number of non-degenerated spectral bands) plus an infinite…
