摘要：

Despite the lack of translational symmetry in random substitutional alloys, their description in terms of single Bloch states has been used in most phenomenological models and spectroscopic practices. We present a new way of analyzing the alloy electronic structures based on a "majority representation" phenomenon of the reciprocal space spectrum P(k) of the wave function. This analysis provides a quantitative answer to the questions: When can an alloy state be classified according to the crystal Bloch state symmetry, and under what circumstances are the conventional theoretical alloy models applicable.
