Consider a quantum particle trapped between a curved layer of constant width built over a complete, non-compact, $\mathcal C^2$ smooth surface embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that the surface is asymptotically flat in the sense that…
We derive a lower bound to the spectral threshold of the Dirichlet Laplacian in tubular neighbourhoods of constant radius about complete surfaces. This lower bound is given by the lowest eigenvalue of a one-dimensional operator depending on…
The structure of the spectrum of the three-dimensional Dirichlet Laplacian in the 3D polyhedral layer of fixed width is studied. It appears that the essential spectrum is defined by the smallest dihedral angle that forms the boundary of the…
We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in a domain two three-dimensional parallel layers having common boundary and coupled by a window. The window produces the bound states below the essential spectrum; we obtain two-sided estimates for them.…
The Dirichlet Laplacian in curved tubes of arbitrary cross-section rotating with respect to the Tang frame along infinite curves in Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension is investigated. If the reference curve is not straight and its…

We investigate the spectrum of the three-dimensional Dirichlet Laplacian in a prototypal infinite polyhedral layer, that is formed by three perpendicular quarter-plane walls of constant width joining each other. Alternatively, this domain…
We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in unbounded strips on ruled surfaces in any space dimension. We locate the essential spectrum under the condition that the strip is asymptotically flat. If the Gauss curvature of the strip equals zero,…
We describe the spectrum structure for the restricted Dirichlet fractional Laplacian in multi-tubes, i.e. domains with cylindrical outlets to infinity. Some new effects in comparison with the local case are discovered. In this version,…

We study the nature of the essential spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian in tubes about infinite curves embedded in Euclidean spaces. Under suitable assumptions about the decay of curvatures at infinity, we prove the absence of singular…
We derive lower bounds for the essential spectrum of the Hodge-Laplacian on geometrically finite orbifolds and their suborbifolds.
We study spectral properties of Dirichlet Laplacian on the conical layer of the opening angle $\pi-2\theta$ and thickness equal to $\pi$. We demonstrate that below the continuum threshold which is equal to one there is an infinite sequence…
In this paper we consider a family of Riemannian manifolds, not necessarily complete, with curvature conditions in a neighborhood of a ray. Under these conditions we obtain that the essential spectrum of the Laplacian contains an interval.…
We perform quantitative spectral analysis of the self-adjoint Dirichlet Laplacian $\mathsf{H}$ on an unbounded, radially symmetric (generalized) parabolic layer $\mathcal{P}\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. It was known before that $\mathsf{H}$ has an…
We investigate monotonicity properties of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian in polyhedral layers of fixed width. We establish that eigenvalues below the essential spectrum threshold monotonically depend on geometric parameters defining…
This paper is concerned with the location of nodal sets of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian in thin tubular neighbourhoods of hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. In the limit when the radius of the…
The spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian on conical layers is analysed through two aspects: the infiniteness of the discrete eigenvalues and their expansions in the small aperture limit. On the one hand, we prove that, for any aperture, the…
