This means that for the upper band, the interaction term increases the inverse
effective mass over the inverse free mass, so that the interaction leads to an
effective mass smaller than the free electron mass. Hence the energy increases
with k ...

It is clear from our definition of the inverse effective mass tensor in (2.13') that it is
related to (S-l^kclckp)En(k) evaluated at the band edge: However, if the right side
of (2.17) is evaluated at any other value of k, we obtain a value which differs ...
