In this chapter, the main formulations of the dynamical theory of electron diffraction are outlined. These include the defining equations, forward scattering, the evolution operator, the projection approximation, semi-reciprocal space, the two-beam approximation, the eigenvalue approach, translational invariance, dispersion surfaces, the multislice formulation, the Born series and other approximations.

Keywords: dynamical theory; electron diffraction; projection approximation; translational invariance; semi-reciprocal space; two-beam approximation; dispersion surfaces; Bloch-wave formulations; multislice calculations; Born series; Born approximation
