Abstract

For a (d + 1)-dimensional photonic crystal with a linear defect strip (waveguide), we calculate real intervals containing spectrum of the associated spectral problem. If such an interval falls completely into a spectral gap of the unperturbed problem (without defect), this will prove the existence of additional spectrum induced by the waveguide.
