you can use the ideas below:
There are two ways to take advantage of GPUs (enabled only for the solver
stage, which typically takes up the most time):

Hi Roberto,
The first reference is the closest in spirit, except that we incorporate the
mix as the pseudopotential of a new "alchemical" species
instead of keeping separate "pure" ghost atoms and using a weight factor for
each.
The second reference imposes extra conditions on the pseudopotenti
Dear Rajesh,
I quote from (the source of) the Siesta manual:
\item The default perturbative scheme for polarization orbitals
can fail in very specific cases. When the polarization orbital
has to have a node due to the presence of a lower-lying orbital
with the same $l$, the program can (if e

Hi,
For some reason, you are using commas (",") instead of dots (".") as decimal
separators. In fortran,
a comma in an input line separates items. This confuses the program. You should
check your 'locale' settings.

Hi,
This is something that we are planning to implement.
For now, if file space is a problem, you could use symbolic links from a
central location to each execution directory.
Best regards,

Hi,
Your 'slab' is just three layers thick... that is not nearly enough to have a
good representation of
a "bulk" region in the center and a "surface" region.
After you fix that, you probably need to process the .VH file and obtain a
potential profile along

Hi,
Please note that the master branch has received a lot of new commits in the
past week. You might have downloaded a version with a temporary glitch.
I suggest you now re-run the build step in the same directory with the option

Hi Daniel,
In Siesta 5.0 the CMake system builds all the utilities by default. If you
install the package after building they will all be in the
/path/to/installation/bin
directory, together with the siesta executable itself. If you do not install,
they will be in _build/Util/, where _buil
Hi Francisco,
You could indeed modify the constr.f file to include what you need, but first
check the section of the manual entitled "Auxiliary Force Field". In there you
can find a discussion of the MM.Potentials block, in which you can define the
parameters of, among others, a harmonic poten
ic potential to selected atoms.

You compiler (gnu 4.8.5) is *very* old. Please upgrade to a modern version.
