- Abstract: The aim of this paper is to show that a two-dimensional Schr\"odinger
operator with the potential in the form of a `ditch' of a fixed profile can
have a geometrically induced discrete spectrum; this happens if such a
potential channel has a single or multiple bends being straight outside a
compact. Moreover, under stronger geometric restrictions the claim remains true
in the presence of a potential bias at one of the channel `banks'.

Chirality is a gapped phase of matter in two spatial dimensions that can be manifested through non-zero thermal or electrical Hall conductance.
We prove two no-go theorems that forbid such chirality for a quantum state in a finite dimensional local Hilbert space with strict area law entanglement entropies.

We discuss a three-dimensional soft quantum waveguide with an attractive potential supported by an infinite tube and keeping its transverse profile fixed.
We show that if the tube is straight, the distance between its ends is unbounded, and its twist satisfies the so-called Tang condition.
We derive a sufficient condition, expressed in terms of the tube geometry, for the discrete spectrum of such an operator to be nonempty.

We consider a soft quantum waveguide described by a two-dimensional Schr"odinger operators with an attractive potential in the form of a channel of a fixed profile built along an infinite smooth curve.
We show that the discrete spectrum of such an operator is nonempty if the potential well defining the channel profile is deep and narrow enough.

The propagation of matter waves in curved geometry is relevant for electrons in nano-wires, solid-state physics structures and atomtronics.
Here, we explore the design of 2D sharply bent wave-guides for the propagation of matter waves beyond the adiabatic regime.
The bend design, which enables the connection of guide components rotated by an arbitrary angle and of arbitrary curvatures, rests on an exact inverse-engineering technique.
