Integral equations of a two-dimensional lightguide

An integral equation describing oscillations of a two-dimensional periodic lightguide is studied. The integral operator is an analytic function of a spectral parameter. The homogenous integral equation has only the zero solution for all values of the spectral parameter expect for some isolated values. Bibliography: 9 titles.
