Abstract

We investigate the applicability of the Genkin-Mednis perturbative approach to the ab initio calculation of the static (hyper)polarizabilities of infinite periodic polymers. Test calculations on molecular hydrogen and polyacetylene chains are presented to assess some of the computational problems inherent to the method.
