Properties of two-Dimensional Materials Containing Inclusions of Various Shapes
We discuss the effect of inclusion shape on the dielectric and elastic properties of two-dimensional materials. We show how the dielectric constant is determined by the dipole moment of the inclusion, convenie...

Elastic Properties of Depleted Networks and Continua
Numerical simulations, effective medium theories and scaling arguments are used to examine the elastic properties of depleted networks and continua. The simplest model that embodies rotationally invariant forc...

Local Magnetic Field Distributions in Ising Models
We show that the statistical mechanics of Isi-ng models can be conveniently reformulated in terms of the local magnetic field probability-distribution function P(h). Analytic results are presented for the 2D s...

Electronic Structure of Amorphous Semiconductors
Until very recently, amorphous solids were a good deal more common in nature than in solid state theory textbooks. This can be only partially excused on the grounds that they are embarrassingly difficult subst...

Two-Magnon Pairing Effects on the Optical Spectra of Antiferromagnets
Recent experiments with light have made it possible to observe the interaction between pairs of magnons in antiferromagnets. We show that these interactions produce large effects on the observed spectra of RbMnF3
