How to do parity analysis of band extrema?

To check whether electronic transitions are allowed between valence band maximum (VBM) and conduction band minimum (CBM) as per Laporte's rule, the parity of VBM/CBM is needed to be known. This paper ...

Hilbert transform on the Bethe Lattice

In order to compute the local Green's function on the Bethe lattice, it is necessary to perform a Hilbert transform $$G_{loc}(\omega) = \int \frac{DOS(\varepsilon)}{\omega-\varepsilon} \text{d}\...
