ABSTRACTWe study possible morphologies of epitaxial films atop attractive substrates appearing as a result of competition of misfit stresses, van der Waals forces and surface energy. Corresponding formula for the critical thickness of the dislocation-free Stranski-Krastanov pattern is established for the isotropic deformable films and substrates. If the film thickness exceeds the critical magnitude the layer-by-layer pattern switches to islanding. At the first stage the islands have a shape of striae (i.e. long parallel trenches with periodic spacing). We discuss also i)the circumstances in which surface morphology of the film corresponds to a two-dimensional superlattice of islands rather than a one dimensional lattice of striae and ii)the influence of a buffer inter-layer.

It is shown that, in the three-dimensional lattice gravity defined by Ponzano and Regge, the space of physical states is isomorphic to the space of gauge-invariant functions on the moduli space of flat SU(2) connections over a two-dimensional surface, which gives physical states in the ISO(3) Chern–Simons gauge theory. To prove this, we employ the q-analogue of this model defined by Turaev and Viro as a regularization to sum over states. A recent work by Turaev suggests that the q-analogue model itself may be related to an Euclidean gravity with a cosmological constant proportional to 1/k2, where q=e2πi/(k+2).

A first-order differential equation of Green's function, at the origin G(0), for the one-dimensional lattice is derived by simple recurrence relation. Green's function at site (m) is then calculated in terms of G(0). A simple recurrence relation connecting the lattice Green's function at the site (m, n) and the first derivative of the lattice Green's function at the site (m ± 1, n) is presented for the two-dimensional lattice, a differential equation of second order in G(0, 0) is obtained. By making use of the latter recurrence relation, lattice Green's function at an arbitrary site is obtained in closed form. Finally, the phase shift and scattering cross-section are evaluated analytically and numerically for one- and two-impurities.
