The microscopic study of complex systems has reached a high level of accuracy that allows for a deep understanding of their structure, electronic properties, and optical spectra. The theoretical investigation of surfaces is nowadays routinely done within density functional theory, for ground state properties, and, with a larger computational load, within many-body perturbation theory, for excited states properties. In this paper we present and discuss examples of calculations for group IV two-dimensional systems such as a clean silicon surface, a tin–germanium interface, graphene, and graphane, pointing out the importance of a pertinent treatment of many-body effects.

Abstract
The microscopic study of complex systems has reached a high level of accuracy that allows for a deep understanding of their structure, electronic properties, and optical spectra. The theoretical investigation of surfaces is nowadays routinely done within density functional theory, for ground state properties, and, with a larger computational load, within many-body perturbation theory, for excited states properties. In this paper we present and discuss examples of calculations for group IV two-dimensional systems such as a clean silicon surface, a tin–germanium interface, graphene, and graphane, pointing out the importance of a pertinent treatment of many-body effects.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
