## Abstract

We investigate how geometry influences spin dynamics in polygonal magnetic nanotubes. We find that lowering the rotational symmetry of nanotubes by decreasing the number of planar facets, splits an increasing number of spin-wave modes, which are doubly degenerate in cylindrical tubes. This symmetry-governed splitting is distinct form the topological one recently observed in cylindrical nanotubes. Doublet modes with half-integer or integer multiple azimuthal periods of the number of facets, split to singlet pairs with lateral standing-wave profiles of opposing mirror-plane symmetries. Furthermore, the polygonal geometry facilitates the hybridization of modes with different azimuthal periods but the same symmetry, manifested in avoided level crossings. These phenomena, unimaginable in cylindrical geometry, provide new tools to control spin dynamics on nanoscale. The presented concept can be generalized to nano-objects of versatile geometries and order parameters, offering new routes to engineer dynamic response in nanoscale devices.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
