Analytical results for Scaling Properties of the Spectrum of the Fibonacci Chain
We solve the approximate renormalisation group found by Qiu Niu and Franco Nori(Phys. Rev. Lett. 57 2057(1986)) for a tight-binding hamiltonian on the Fibonacci chain. This enables us to characterize analytically as completely as possible the spectral properties of this model, such as the spectral measure, the bandwidt...

X-Ray Reflectivity of Fibonacci Multilayers
We have numerically computed the reflectivity of X-ray incident normally onto Fibonacci multilayers, and compared the results with those obtained in periodic approximant multilayers. The constituent layers are of low and high refractive indices with the same thickness. Whereas reflectivity of periodic approximant multi...

Weak levitation of 2D delocalized states in a magnetic field.
The deviation of the energy position of a delocalized state from the center of Landau level is studied in the framework of the Chalker-Coddington model. It is demonstrated that introducing a weak Landau level mixing results in a shift of the delocalized state up in energy. The mechanism of a levitation is a neighboring...

Theory of the Resonant Neutron Scattering of High $T_c$ Superconductors
Recent polarized neutron scattering experiments on $YBa_2 Cu_3 O_7$ have revealed a sharp spectral peak at the $(\pi,\pi)$ in reciprocal lattice centered around the energy transfer of $41\ meV$. We offer a theoretical explanation of this remarkable experiment in terms of a new collective mode in the particle particle c...
