More on integrable structures of superstrings in AdS(4) x CP(3) and AdS(2) x S(2) x T(6) superbackgrounds
In this paper we continue the study, initiated in arXiv:1009.3498 and
arXiv:1104.1793, of the classical integrability of Green-Schwarz superstrings
in AdS(4) x CP(3) and AdS(2) x S(2) x T(6) superbackgrounds whose spectrum
contains non-supercoset worldsheet degrees of freedom corresponding to broken
supersymmetries in the bulk. We derive an explicit expression, to all orders in
the coset fermions and to second order in the non-coset fermions, which extends
the supercoset Lax connection in these backgrounds with terms depending on the
non-coset fermions. An important property of the obtained form of the Lax
connection is that it is invariant under Z_4-transformations of the
superisometry generators and the spectral parameter. This demonstrates that the
contribution of the non-coset fermions does not spoil the Z_4-symmetry of the
super-coset Lax connection which is of crucial importance for the application
of Bethe-ansatz techniques. The expressions describing the AdS(4) x CP(3) and
AdS(2) x S(2) x T(6) superstring sigma--models and their Lax connections have a
very similar form. This is because their amount of target-space supersymmetries
complement each other to 32=24+8, the maximal number of 10d type II
supersymmetries. As a byproduct, this similarity has allowed us to obtain the
form of the geometry of the complete type IIA AdS(2) x S(2) x T(6) superspace
to all orders in the coset fermions and to the second order in the non-coset
ones.Comment: 28 pages; v2: References adde

The theoretical DFT study of electronic structure of thin Si/SiO2 quantum nanodots and nanowires
The atomic and electronic structure of a set of proposed thin (1.6 nm in
diameter) silicon/silica quantum nanodots and nanowires with narrow interface,
as well as parent metastable silicon structures (1.2 nm in diameter), was
studied in cluster and PBC approaches using B3LYP/6-31G* and PW PP LDA
approximations. The total density of states (TDOS) of the smallest
quasispherical silicon quantum dot (Si85) corresponds well to the TDOS of the
bulk silicon. The elongated silicon nanodots and 1D nanowires demonstrate the
metallic nature of the electronic structure. The surface oxidized layer opens
the bandgap in the TDOS of the Si/SiO2 species. The top of the valence band and
the bottom of conductivity band of the particles are formed by the silicon core
derived states. The energy width of the bandgap is determined by the length of
the Si/SiO2 clusters and demonstrates inverse dependence upon the size of the
nanostructures. The theoretical data describes the size confinement effect in
photoluminescence spectra of the silica embedded nanocrystalline silicon with
high accuracy.Comment: 22 pages, 5 figures, 1 tabl
