Abstract: We consider the twisted waveguide $Omeg{a}_{h}eta$, i.e. the domain obtained by the rotation of the bounded cross section $omegasubset{mathbbR}^2$ of the straight tube $Omega:=omegaimesmathbbR$ at angle $heta$ which depends on the variable along the axis of $Omega$. We study the spectral properties of the Dirichlet Laplacian in $Omeg{a}_{h}eta$, unitarily equivalent under the diffeomorphism $Omeg{a}_{h}etaoOmega$ to the operator $H_{het{a}^{\prime }}$, self-adjoint in ${mL}^2(Omega)$. We assume that $$ where $$ is a $2pi$-periodic function, and $epsilon$ decays at infinity. Then in the spectrum $$ of the unperturbed operator $$ there is a semi-bounded gap $(-infty,{mathcalE}_0^{+})$, and, possibly, a number of bounded open gaps $({mathcalE}_j^{-},{mathcalE}_j^{+})$. Since $epsilon$ decays at infinity, the essential spectra of $$ and $$ coincide. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the discrete spectrum of $$ near an arbitrary fixed spectral edge ${mathcalE}_j^{p}m$. We establish necessary and quite close sufficient conditions which guarantee the finiteness of $$ in a neighbourhood of ${mathcalE}_j^{p}m$. In the case where the necessary conditions are violated, we obtain the main asymptotic term of the corresponding eigenvalue counting function. The effective Hamiltonian which governs the the asymptotics of $$ near ${mathcalE}_j^{p}m$ could be represented as a finite orthogonal sum of operators of the form $-mufrac{d}^{2}d{x}^2-etaepsilon$, self-adjoint in ${mL}^2(mathbbR)$; here, $mu>0$ is a constant related to the so-called effective mass, while $eta$ is $2pi$-periodic function depending on $$ and $omega$.
