The main aim of the paper is the study of essential spectra of electromagnetic Schrödinger operators with variable potentials in cylindric domains Π = Ω × R , where Ω ⊂ R n is a bounded domain with a smooth boundary provided by admissible boundary conditions. Applying the limit operators method, we obtain explicit estimates of the essential spectrum for a wide class of quantum waveguides. We also consider a numerical example of calculations of the discrete spectrum of horizontally stratified quantum waveguides applying a method of the decomposition of solutions of spectral problems for one‐dimensional Schrödinger operators as a power series with respect to the spectral parameter.
