Abstract: Following a number of recent studies of resolvent and spectral convergence of non-uniformly elliptic families of differential operators describing the behaviour of periodic composite media with high contrast, we study the corresponding one-dimensional version that includes a "defect": an inclusion of fixed size with a given set of material parameters. It is known that the spectrum of the purely periodic case without the defect and its limit, as the period $varepsilon$ goes to zero, has a band-gap structure. We consider a sequence of eigenvalues $lambd{a}_{v}arepsilon$ that are induced by the defect and converge to a point $l_0$ located in a gap of the limit spectrum for the periodic case. We show that the corresponding eigenfunctions are "extremely" localised to the defect, in the sense that the localisation exponent behaves as $exp(-u/varepsilon),$ $u>0,$ which has not been observed in the existing literature. As a consequence, we argue that $l_0$ is an eigenvalue of a certain limit operator defined on the defect only. In two- and three-dimensional configurations, whose one-dimensional cross-sections are described by the setting considered, this implies the existence of propagating waves that are localised to the defect. We also show that the unperturbed operators are norm-resolvent close to a degenerate operator on the real axis, which is described explicitly.
