Electronic Green scattering with n-fold symmetry axis from block circulant matrices

The electronic scattering Green function formalism is applied to a system processing a n-fold symmetry axis. A suitable discretization of the Lippmann-Schwinger equations leads to the inversion of block circulant matrices. This calculation is carried out by using a specialized algorithm, also described, which fully exploits the formal consequences of symmetry.
