Fundamental properties of spontaneous and piezo polarization are reformulated and critically reviewed. It was demonstrated that Landau definition of polarization as a dipole density could be used to the infinite systems. The difference…

Starting from the random phase approximation for the weakly coupled multiband tightly-bounded electron systems, we calculate the dielectric matrix in terms of intraband and interband transitions. The advantages of this representation with…

The Choquet integral w.r.t. a capacity can be seen in the finite case as a parsimonious linear interpolator between vertices of $[0,1]^n$. We take this basic fact as a starting point to define the Choquet integral in a very general way,…
