Abstract

It is shown that the Fourier coefficients in the expansion of the lattice Green function and the frequency spectrum can be calculated without evaluating the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the dynamical matrix. With this simplification, the Fourier expansion method can now be conveniently applied to perturbed lattices.
