Spectral properties of periodic systems cut at an angle
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 359 (2021) no. 8, pp. 949-958.

We consider a semi-periodic two-dimensional Schrödinger operator which is cut at an angle. When the cut is commensurate with the periodic lattice, the spectrum of the operator has the band-gap Bloch structure. We prove that in the incommensurable case, there are no gaps: the gaps of the bulk operator are filled with edge spectrum.
