abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">We develop a non-overlapping domain decomposition method (DDM) for
scalar wave scattering by periodic layered media. Our approach relies on robust boundary-integral equation formulations of Robin-to-Robin (RtR) maps throughout the frequency spectrum, including cutoff (or Wood) frequencies. We overcome the obstacle of non-convergent quasi-periodic Green functions at these frequencies by incorporating newly introduced shifted Green functions. Using the latter in the definition of quasi-periodic boundary-integral operators leads to rigorously stable computations of RtR operators. We develop Nyström discretizations of the RtR maps that rely
on trigonometric interpolation, singularity resolution, and fast convergent windowed
quasi-periodic Green functions. We solve the tridiagonal DDM system via recursive
Schur complements and establish rigorously that this procedure is always completed
successfully. We present a variety of numerical results concerning Wood frequencies
in two and three dimensions as well as large numbers of layers.</p>},
