Abstract
The effect of the discrete structure of the halo on local oscillations of a galactic disk is analyzed. Such effects have much in common with dynamical friction. Gaseous and stellar disks are considered; in both cases, some le ading spiral density waves are unstable. Bending oscillations of the disk c an also be unstable when the disk interacts with the halo.
