TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that the breakdown of analyticity is not found in average Green's functions which are obtained on the basis of the cluster coherent potential approximation for systems with substitutional disorder if the one particle total hamiltonian for a given configuration is expressed as a sum of homomorphic single-cluster hamiltonians.
Abstract
We show that the breakdown of analyticity is not found in average Green's functions which are obtained on the basis of the cluster coherent potential approximation for systems with substitutional disorder if the one particle total hamiltonian for a given configuration is expressed as a sum of homomorphic single-cluster hamiltonians. Disorder can be site-diagonal and/or off-diagonal. In this article the emphasis is laid on off-diagonal cases. We first treat three-dimensional disordered systems with a semielliptic distribution of nearest neighbour transfers { V i j }. We also apply our homomorphic cluster coherent approximation (HCPA) to the bond percolation problem; we obtain the densities of states which show characteristic features found through a computer simulation.

Stochastic transport in disordered systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a theory of stochastic transport in disordered media, starting from a linear master equation with random transition rates, and employed a Green function formalism to reduce the basic equation to a form suitable for the construction of a class of effective medium approximations (EMAs).

Electron localisation in systems with purely off-diagonal randomness

TL;DR: In this paper, a homomorphic cluster CPA with the L(E) criterion was used to study localisation in a simple cubic lattice and a computer simulation was used for a square lattice with the participation-ratio criterion.

Homomorphic Cluster Coherent Potential Approximation for Systems with Site-Diagonal and/or Off-Diagonal Randomness

TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply the homomorphic cluster coherent potential approximation (HCPA) to systems with site-diagonal and/or offdiagonal randomness, and show numerically that the average Green's function obtained on the basis of the HCPA is analytic off the real axis on the complex energy plane.

Calculation of the exciton green's function of a molecular crystal from a two-site dynamical coherent potential approximation

Coherent Cluster Theory for Static and Dynamic Disordered Systems on Bethe Lattices

TL;DR: In this paper, a new systematic cluster theory beyond the single-site coherent potential approximation is presented for averaged one-particle Green's functions, developed in augmented space and illustrated for site-diagonal disorder.

The theory and properties of randomly disordered crystals and related physical systems

TL;DR: A review of the methods for determining the behavior of solids whose properties vary randomly at the microscopic level, with principal attention to systems having composition variation on a well-defined structure (random "alloys") can be found in this paper.

Single-Site Approximations in the Electronic Theory of Simple Binary Alloys

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-band model Hamiltonian is used to describe the electronic structure of a three-dimensional disordered binary alloy, and several common theories based on the single-site approximation in a multiple-scattering description are compared with exact results for this Hamiltonian.

A Reformulation of the Coherent Potential Approximation and Its Applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a formalism to calculate from the first principle the electronic structure of substitutionally disordered alloys in the coherent potential approximation (CPA), based on the t-matrix of the muffin-tin potential and extend the KKR method of the energy band calculation to concentrated alloys.

Localized States of a Binary Alloy

TL;DR: In this article, a non-degenerate tight-binding band arising primarily from one constituent of a substitutional alloy is considered, and an approximate calculation of their spectral weight is carried out.
