The Treatment of Aperiodicity in Polymers

  • Chapter
  • 104 Accesses

Abstract

We introduce the elementary theory of Green functions following Raines(1) by looking for the solution of a simple inhomogeneous differential equation. That is, we do not introduce second quantization and diagrammatic techniques (as more sophisticated treatments of Green functions do(2) at this point).
