Abstract
We discuss the electronic structure of quasicrystals containing transition elements by considering the effects of the diffraction of conduction states by Bragg planes and of their coupling with localized d orbitals. We calculate the consequences of these two terms on transport properties, densities of states, magnetism and negative valency of transition atoms, and compare our predictions with ab initio calculations and experiments.
