Abstract

The dielectric formalism is formulated for a general separable kernel in an arbitrary basis and representation. The underlying integral equation is in this case equivalent to an inhomogeneous set of linear equations. Applications to Fourier-space and real-space are presented. Furthermore it is explicitly demonstrated for the static case that in the tight binding limit local field effects do not give rise to the classical Lorentz-Lorenz relation as previously found.
