Semi-infinite metal: perturbative treatment based on semi-infinite jellium

Energy of electronic subsystem of semi-infinite metal is presented in the form of an expansion in powers of pseudo-potential. It is shown that generally electron many-particle density matrices are necessary for the energy calculation, whereas in case of a local pseudo-potential only diagonal element...
