[D40.021] Dynamics of electron confined to random dendritic structures

W. Schwalm, M. Schwalm (Univ. of North Dakota)

Motivated in part by the suggestion that high T_c superconductivity via the BCS mechanism may relate to branched domain structures, we have computed spectral and dynamical properties of a tight-binding electron in several types of random dendrites. We form a structure ensemble and compute dynamical properties by renormalization. Structures include random-alloy Bethe lattices, Vicsek-related random trees, and other related structures. Properties of interest are the densities of states and Kubo-Greenwood conductance at the Fermi level, as well as related vibrational properties.
