Abstract
In this work we study the changes introduced by a disclination on the
energy spectrum of a free particle confined to move between two concen
trical cylindrical shells. It is seen that the change in topology caus
ed by the defect produces an analogue of the bound-state Aharonov-Bohm
effect in condensed matter. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
