A method is given for accurate calculation of the expectation value of the Hamiltonian of a crystal with respect to a single‐determinant wave function of LCAO type. The method is partly based on numerical integration over one Wigner‐Seitz cell. In principle, the calculations involve infinite summations over lattice sites; suitable truncation methods are devised.
