[For the entire collection see Zbl 0733.00011.] In this review paper the authors discuss some problems connected with the spectral bands for wave equations in more than one dimension which do not possess special symmetries permitting the variables to be separated. The discussion is performed on a simple example, namely: (1) \((- \varepsilon^ 2\nabla^ 2+V(x))\psi=E\psi\) written for \(\psi(x,y)\) defined in the following strip: (2) \(| x|<\infty\), \(b_ 1(x)<y<b_ 2(x)\). In (1)--(2) \(E\) (the eigenparameter) and \(\varepsilon\) (a small shortwave parameter) are two constants while \(V(x)\), \(b_ 1(x)\) and \(b_ 2(x)\) are given \(\pi\)-periodic functions, i.e.: \(V(x+\pi)=V(x)\) etc. The topics discussed in the paper include the trajectories, real and complex rays, Stokes phenomena, the connection problem, the quasi- periodic solutions, the stability of toroids and the spectrum of (1). The discussion is performed without giving any detail. Some methods to numerical computations as well as some generalizations to the three- dimensional wave problems are also remarked.
