Abstract

The Green function of a square tight-binding model in magnetic fields is expressed by means of continued fractions. For rational fields, the expression is reduced to a more useful one. The Green function expressing the out-going wave is numerically computed at arbitrary sites for the first time. It is found that the absolute value of the Green function takes maximum values on the reciprocal lattice of the magnetic Brillouin zone.
