ABSTRACTMultiple scattering theory (MST) provides an efficient technique for solving the wave equation for the special case of muffin-tin potentials. Here MST is extended to treat space filling non- muffin tin potentials and its validity, accuracy and efficiency are tested by application of the two dimensional empty lattice test. For this test it is found that the traditional formulation of MST does not converge as the number of partial waves is increased. A simple modification of MST, however, allows this problem to be solved exactly and efficiently.
