Abstract
The kinetics of rate processes on solid surfaces, as a rule, is substantially nonideal owing to the heterogeneity of the substrate, lateral interactions between adsorbed particles or adsorbate-induced changes in the surface. To describe these effects, one can use various approaches developed in statistical physics, including the quasi-chemical and Bethe-Peierls approximations, transfer-matrix technique, renormalization-group method, and Monte Carlo simulations. The review presented outlines the main ideas and mathematical formalism of the above mentioned approaches and their application in the theory of kinetic processes in adsorbed overlayers.
