Abstract: We consider a polyharmonic operator $H=(-Delta{)}^l+V(x)$ in dimension two with $lgeq2$, $l$ being an integer, and a quasi-periodic potential $V(x)$. We prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum of $H$ contains a semiaxis and there is a family of generalized eigenfunctions at every point of this semiaxis with the following properties. First, the eigenfunctions are close to plane waves $e^{i<k,x>}$ at the high energy region. Second, the isoenergetic curves in the space of momenta $k$ corresponding to these eigenfunctions have a form of slightly distorted circles with holes (Cantor type structure). A new method of multiscale analysis in the momentum space is developed to prove these results.
