The properties of the natural modes in a dispersive stratified N-layer medium are investigated. The focus is on the (over)completeness properties of these modes. Also the distribution of the natural frequencies is considered. Both the degree of (over)completeness and the natural frequency distribution turn out to be totally different from what is known for the non-dispersive case.

Exact solutions of the linear water-wave problem describing oblique waves over a submerged horizontal cylinder of small (but otherwise fairly arbitrary) cross-section in a two-layer fluid are constructed in the form of convergent series in powers of the small parameter characterizing the thinness of the cylinder. The terms of these series are expressed through the solution of the exterior Neumann problem for the Laplace equation describing the flow of unbounded fluid past the cylinder. The solutions obtained describe trapped modes corresponding to discrete eigenvalues of the problem (lying close to the cut-off frequency of the continuous spectrum) and resonances lying close to the embedded cut-off. We present certain conditions for the submergence of the cylinder in the upper layer when these resonances convert into previously unobserved embedded trapped modes.
The scattering of quasiperiodic waves for a two-dimensional Helmholtz equation with a constant refractive index perturbed by a function which is periodic in one direction and of finite support in the other is considered. The scattering problem is uniquely solvable for almost all frequencies and formulas of Breit-Wigner and Fano type for the reflection and transmission coefficients are obtained in a neighborhood of the resonance (a pole of the reflection coefficient). We indicate also the values of the parameters involved which provide total transmission and reflection. For some exceptional frequencies and perturbations (when the imaginary part of the resonance vanishes) the scattering problem is not uniquely solvable and in the latter case there exist embedded Rayleigh-Bloch modes whose frequencies are explicitly calculated in terms of infinite convergent series in powers of the small parameter characterizing the magnitude of the perturbation.
We study the guided modes in the wire medium slab taking into account both the nonlocality and losses in the structure. We show that due to the fact that the wire medium is an extremeley spatially dispersive metamaterial, the effect of nonlocality plays a critical role since it results in coupling between the otherwise orthogonal guided modes. We observe both the effects of strong and weak coupling, depending on the level of losses in the system.

In this paper we consider embedded eigenvalues of a Schroedinger Hamiltonian in a waveguide induced by a symmetric perturbation. It is shown that these eigenvalues become unstable and turn into resonances after twisting of the waveguide. The perturbative expansion of the resonance width is calculated for weakly twisted waveguides and the influence of the twist on resonances in a concrete model is discussed in detail.
We have solved exactly the two-component Dirac equation in the presence of a spatially one-dimensional Hulthen potential, and presented the Dirac spinors of scattering states in terms of hypergeometric functions. We have calculated the reflection and transmission coefficients by the matching conditions on the wavefunctions, and investigated the condition for the existence of transmission resonances. Furthermore, we have demonstrated how the transmission-resonance condition depends on the shape of the potential.
