Abstract
We investigate the band-gap structure in a weakly guiding strongly anisotropic optical fiber, in which the anisotropy axis uniformly rotates in a transverse plane with z increasing. It is demonstrated that there is a gap in the spectrum of the scalar wave equation with the width proportional to the anisotropy constant.
