The Embedding Method for Electronic Structure

The embedding method was originally developed for calculating the electronic structure of surfaces and interfaces, but its flexibility has provided a powerful tool in many other areas of physics. Here, John Inglesfield, who originated the method and has been a pioneer in its usage, brings together the different aspects of embedding and its applications. This authoritative text serves both as an accessible starting point for graduate students and researchers, and as an authoritative reference source for those familiar with the technique.
