Electronic band structure and Fermi surface of Ag$_5$Pb$_2$O$_6$
  We present electronic band structure of Ag$_5$Pb$_2$O$_6$ with layered hexagonal structure containing one-dimensional chains and two-dimensional Kagom\'{e} layers of silver. A half-filled conduction band shows extremely simple, single nearly-free-electron-like Fermi surface. The conduction band is composed of an antibonding state of Pb-$6s$ and O-$2p$ mixing with Ag-4d and $5s$. Mass enhancement in the state density at the Fermi energy is expected to be negligibly small by comparing with the specific-heat data. Calculated Fermi velocity is consistent with small anisotropy observed in transport properties. Doping effects on the electronic structure are also discussed.
