You are absolutely correct, also the magnetic field breaks periodic symmetry. In addition, it is even much MORE complicated than an electric field, because it is gauge-dependent, (origin) The magnetic field acts an both, the spins (via Vxc up/dn, and this is included correctly), and on

Sorry, my mistake. I thought you are using an electric field. As was said before, you need bigger fields Am 10.07.2013 19:12, schrieb majid yazdani: Dears Prof. Blaha and Martin Pieper Thanks for your reply I use the unit cell for my calculations. Is this similar to the electric field?

Dear Majid Yazdani, since you indicate that you are looking for effects of the magnetic field in the DOS, or maybe in a spaghetti band structure plot, my guess is that you are looking in the wrong place. The energy differences are VERY small (calculate the energy of a moment of 1 Bohr

And: did you use a supercell ??? The field is of zig-zag shape to have periodic boundary conditions. On 07/10/2013 05:06 PM, pieper wrote: Dear Majid Yazdani, since you indicate that you are looking for effects of the magnetic field in the DOS, or maybe in a spaghetti band structure plot, my

Dears Prof. Blaha and Martin Pieper Thanks for your reply I use the unit cell for my calculations. Is this similar to the electric field? When I grep the MMTOT see that it changes. But I want to see the electronic structure changes. When I use this method for other cases in both FM and AFM

Dear Majid Yazdani. As for the unit cell: I never did the Ce example, but you should consider how the field you applied fits into local symmetries. As for the electronic structure changes: Apply a field B0 large enough to have g*mu_B*B0 E_convergence of your SCF. When you calculate the
