In Ref. [PRL 102, 127202 (2009)] Lee et al. reported the existence of large magnonic bandgaps in one-dimensional width-modulated Permalloy nanostripe waveguides based on OOMMF simulations. However, as the symmetry of the magnetic field…

We consider a periodic pseudodifferential operator $H=(-\Delta)^l+A$ ($l>0$) in $\R^d$ which satisfies the following conditions: (i) the symbol of $H$ is smooth in $x$, and (ii) the perturbation $A$ has order smaller than $2l-1$. Under…

In this paper we study the spectral properties of Markov-operator on $L^{2}$-spaces. Lawler and Sokal (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 1988, 309, pp. 557-580) used isoperimetric constants for discrete and continuous time Markov chains to obtain a…

Under certain assumptions (including $d\ge 2)$ we prove that the spectrum of a scalar operator in $\mathscr{L}^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ \begin{equation*} A_\varepsilon (x,hD)= A^0(hD) + \varepsilon B(x,hD), \end{equation*} covers interval…

We propose an effective permittivity model to homogenize an array of long thin epsilon-negative rods arranged in a periodic lattice. It is proved that the effect of spatial dispersion in this electromagnetic crystal cannot be neglected, and…

Let $\Omega$ be a Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb R^d$, and let $\mathcal A^\varepsilon=-\operatorname{div}A(x,x/\varepsilon)\nabla$ be a strongly elliptic operator on $\Omega$. We suppose that $\varepsilon$ is small and the function $A$ is…

We consider the Schr\"odinger operator with a periodic potential on quasi-1D models of armchair single-wall nanotubes. The spectrum of this operator consists of an absolutely continuous part (intervals separated by gaps) plus an infinite…
