A study of the phonon spectrum of the octagonal tiling is presented, by calculating and analysing the properties of the spectrum of perfect and randomized commensurate approximants with unit cells containing up to 8119 vertices. The total density of states, obtained by numerical integration over the Brillouin zone, exhibits much structure, and in the low frequency range of the spectrum there is deviation from the normal linear behaviour in the form of pseudogaps. For randomized approximants these pseudogaps disappear and the density of states is globally smoothened. It turns out that the widths of the gaps in the dispersion vanish in the low frequency limit. Therefore the scaling behaviour of the lowest branches tends to the behaviour of an absolutely continuous spectrum, which is not the case at higher frequencies. As an application, the vibrational specific heat of the different tiling models is calculated and compared to the specific heat of a square lattice and of a Debye model.


Thermodynamic measurements have been made at temperatures below 1°K, obtained by the method of magnetic cooling, on copper potassium sulphate and on a diluted copper Tutton salt. A study has been made of the field- dependence (for small fields) of the adiabatic susceptibility of the cooled and thermally isolated salt, the measurements covering the range of temperature from 1°K down to 0.05°K for copper potassium sulphate, and to 0.025° K for the dilute salt. From these measurements the entropy and magnetic susceptibility are determined as functions of the absolute temperature. It is concluded that for both salts the susceptibility follows a Curie-Weiss law, the values of ∆ being 0.034 and 0.0048º K respectively; the specific heats are of the form ∆ / T 2 , the values found for A being 6.1x10 -4 R for copper potassium sulphate and 1.98x10 -4 R for the dilute salt.Deviations from this behaviour in a ferromagnetic direction are found for copper potassium sulphate below 0.07° K.

Using the two-dimensional Jordan–Wigner Fermionization procedure, we calculate the energy spectrum of the in-phase flux antiferromagnetically spin-1/2 coupled Heisenberg model in a square lattice, the formalism used introduces the notion of isotropic parameters. The energy spectrum is analyzed for various regimes of the exchange interactions and the isotropic parameters. The thermodynamic parameters of the lattice, notably the ground state energy, the free energy, mean energy, entropy and specific heat are calculated. It is seen that the specific heat undergoes a phase transition at a temperature below the critical temperature due to spontaneous magnetization. Its entropy for homogeneous and completely isotropic regime is compared for two regimes of the exchange interaction and it is observed that the entropy decreases with an increase in the coupling strength. All the thermodynamic parameters calculated for this spin model are seen to be in conformity with the principles and laws of Statistical Thermodynamics.
