Abstract
The critical properties at disorder-driven phase transitions in systems of 2d
electrons can be analyzed in network models which are generated by certain 1d
superspin chains. Here, we analyze the finite size spectrum of an
integrable $sl(2|1)$ symmetric superspin chain based on a vertex model
with alternating representations $3$ and $3$ which also arises in the
description of the finite temperature properties of the supersymmetric
$t$--$J$ model. In the zero charge sector the ground state is identified as a
singlet for chains with the same number of the two different representations.
The finite-size spectrum of low-lying excitations in this sector is characterized by a continuum
of states with energies differing by $O(1/LL)$. In addition we present
first results for some excitations with non-zero charge.
