12. The proceedure used in ref. [6] can be generalised to include external potentials which break translational invariance. In general these modify the Hamiltonian (2), and for adsorption at substrates or walls additional depletion contributions do arise. However, for the "free" interface between coexisting phases the additional contributions have no effect on the interfacial properties. BRADER J. M. and EVANS R. (in preparation).
