Abstract
We present temperature-dependent V-2p and O-1s x-ray-absorption spectra of LiVO2. The aim of this
study is to monitor changes in electronic structure on going through the phase transition. The spectral changes
turn out to be very small: the V-3d--O-2p hybridization does not change considerably, and the symmetry of
the V-ion ground state (high-spin
