On the energy-shell contributions of the three-particle~-~ three-hole excitations
The response functions for the extended second and third random phase
approximation are compared. A second order perturbation calculation shows that
the first-order amplitude for the direct excitation from the ground
state cancels with those that are engendered by the - coupling. As
a consequence nonvanishing effects to the response involve off
energy shell renormalization only. On shell processes are absent.Comment: 12 pages text (LaTex) and 1 figure included, to be published in Phys.

Momentum Distribution in Nuclear matter within a Perturbation Approximation
It is shown that the norm corrections, introduced to avoid the violation of
the constraints on the depletion of the hole states in the standard
perturbative 2p2h approach, leads in nuclear matter to a dependence of the
momentum distribution with the total nucleon number. This unphysical behavior,
which in turn makes the depletion to be non-extensive, arises from
contributions of disconnected diagrams contained in the norm. It is found that
the extensivity is again recovered when the 4p4h excitations in the ground
state are included, and a reasonable value for the total number of nucleons
promoted above the Fermi level is obtained.Comment: 11 pages, LaTeX, 5 figures, figures 1 to 3 included in the latex

Tunable Exchange Interaction in Quantum Dot Devices
We theoretically discuss the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction
between semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). When each QD having a local spin is
coupled to the conduction electrons in semiconductors, an indirect exchange
interaction, i.e., the RKKY interaction, is induced between two local spins.
The RKKY interaction between QDs, which is mediated by the Fermi sea in
semiconductors, is modulated by changing the Fermi energy, and the magnitude or
even the sign of the exchange interaction can be tuned, which leads to a
tunable magnetic transition in QD devices. We estimate the magnitude of the
RKKY interaction in QDs as a function of the electron density and the inter-dot
distance
Comment on ``Local dimer-adatom stacking fault structures from 3x3 to 13x13 along Si(111)-7x7 domain boundaries''
Zhao et al. [Phys.Rev.B 58, 13824 (1998)] depicted several atomic structures
of domain boundaries on a Si(111) surface and criticized the article by the
present author and the co-workers. I will point out that their criticism is
incorrect and their structure models have no consistency.Comment: 2 pages. Physical Review B, to appea
Notes on S-Matrix of Non-critical N=2 String
In this paper we discuss the scattering S-matrix of non-critical N=2 string
at tree level. First we consider the \hat{c}<1 string defined by combining the
N=2 time-like linear dilaton SCFT with the N=2 Liouville theory. We compute
three particle scattering amplitudes explicitly and find that they are actually
vanishing. We also find an evidence that this is true for higher amplitudes.
Next we analyze another \hat{c}<1 string obtained from the N=2 time-like
Liouville theory, which is closely related to the N=2 minimal string. In this
case, we find a non-trivial expression for the three point functions. When we
consider only chiral primaries, the amplitudes are very similar to those in the
(1,n) non-critical bosonic string.Comment: 27 pages, harvmac, section 5 modified: a relation to (1,n)
