8. 3, the quadratic part of the potential is no longer isotropic, and in this case the negativeness of expression (2) is a sufficient condition for the instability of the structure against single particle displacements.

19. Although it was not discussed here, for particular values of the parameters this potential has as its MEC the structure of a random quasicrystal (see Ref. 2).
20. (3D) as given by Eq. (11) is a sufficient condition for the instability of the structure.
