It is shown in this paper that for open systems, states that are localized in space, discrete in energy, and embedded in the continuum of extended states can be sustained by low-dimensional and channeled leads. These states have an origin different from that of analogous states discussed by von Neumann and Wigner [Phys. Z. 30, 465 (1929)]. A few representative systems are discussed. These states cause, for example, infinitely sharp Fano resonance in transport when they are marginally destroyed.
