Lattice Green‘s Function for Infinite Square Lattice in the Second Nearest-Neighbour Interaction Approximation

In dealing with the square lattice model,we replace the traditionally needed Born-Von Karmann periodic boundary condition with additional Hamiltonian terms to make up a ring lattice.In doing so,the lattice Green‘s function of an infinite square lattice in the second nearest-neighbour interaction approximation can be derived by means of the matrix Green‘s function method.It is shown that the density of states may change when the second nearest-neighbour interaction is turned on.``
