Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

The formulae determining the maximum differences of the integrated density of states and of the moments of the differential density of states of a finite and of the corresponding infinite crystal in the LCAO method are given and discussed in detail. The binding energies of one-, two- and three-dimensional model of a crystal are shown as an illustration of the general theory.
