We present calculations of quasiparticle band structures for the GaAs(110) surface, performed within a particularly simple tight-binding model for the self energy. Despite its simplicity the model includes contributions from electronic interaction with surface plasmons in addition to both local field and dynamic effects. The resulting quasiparticle band structure is in excellent agreement with recent theoretical work.
