Abstract

An infinite lattice summation scheme based on the idea of renormalization is generalized to enable the evaluation of infinite lattice sums with Bloch phase factors which can occur when treating long-range interactions in infinite periodic systems. The scheme is fast, with easily adjustable accuracy and is not limited to any choice of special points in the Brillouin zone. Illustrative calculation for a first few contributions for a simple cubic lattice is presented.
