Abstract: Convenient theoretical methods for calculating structure and thermodynamic properties of fluids near an irregular hard wall are developed. Using the diagrammatic expansion, we prove that: Firstly, a fluid system in contact with an irregular surface can be treated as two coupling fluids. The first one is defined by the studied fluid interacting with a planar hard wall. It is called the reference system. The second, which is referred to as the fictitious system, is confined to the surface cavities. Secondly, these developments can be used to find a self-consistent approximation.
