Abstract
Recent theoretical results on the magneto-anisotropic properties of low-dimensional transition-metal systems are reviewed. The magnetic anisotropy energy and related electronic properties of finite clusters, one-dimensional chains and ultra, thin films are discussed in the framework of a self-consistent tight-binding approach.

For films, surfaces or multilayers dipole-dipole interactions cannot be neglected. In first approximation, they can be described by the classical expression
