The spectrum of the Laplacian on forms over flat manifolds

In this article we prove that the spectrum of the Laplacian on k-forms over a noncompact flat manifold is always a connected closed interval of the nonnegative real line. The proof is based on a detailed decomposition of the structure of flat manifolds.
