The electronic mass enhancement λ k on the Fermi surfaces of Cu and Nb is expanded in various basis sets. In particular, orthogonal polynomials (‚Fermi surface harmonics’) are constructed in the velocity vector components (FSH( v )), in the wave vector components (FSH( k )) and the cubic harmonics (CH). The results indicate that the set FSH( k ) gives better convergence than the sets FSH( v ) or CH.
