We presentab initiocalculations of the electronic structure and the optical properties of InN crystallizing in wurtzite, zinc-blende, and rocksalt structures. They are based on well converged atomic geometries including the effect of the Inelectrons. The quasiparticle aspect is described in the framework of aapproximation. The opposite influence of quasiparticle effects and therepulsion is demonstrated for the band structures. The pecularities of the band structures such as the small gap of theandpolymorphs and their large electron affinity are discussed. The frequency dependence of the dielectric functions is explained in terms of nonparabolic bands and high-energy optical transitions at critical points. Excitonic effects drastically influence the optical absorption by an overall redshift of the entire spectrum and a redistribution of oscillator strengths. The results are critically discussed in the light of recent experiments.
