Abstract We study the equation (℘A) (-i▽ + A)2u + V u = |u|p-2u, where A ∈C1,α(ℝN,ℝN) and V ∈C0,α(ℝN) are 2π-periodic in each variable, V > 0; and p ∈(2; 2*) with 2* := ∞ if N = 2 and We address two questions: first, the gauge-dependence problem for 2π-periodic solutions u : ℝN → C and second, the multiplicity of Bloch solutions. Unlike the nonperiodic case where problem (℘A) is basically independent of A (it is gauge invariant), in the periodic case this is far from being true. Under some assumptions on A we show that, if there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the 2π-periodic solutions of (℘A) and those of (℘A + z) preserving their absolute value, then z lies in a subset of measure zero of ℝN. We use this fact to show the existence of an uncountable set of Bloch solutions with real quasimomentum.
