these have small eigenvalues in the mixing Jacobian which are removed when symmetry is imposed. All one can do is use MSEC3 or some of the additional flags (see the mixer README) such as "SLOW". Fifth...probably exists, but I can't think of it immediately. On Fri, Jan 20, 2017 at 2:03

[Wien] Mixer surprise when using PBE0 hybrid on-site functional

2017-01-20 Thread Xavier Rocquefelte
Dear Colleagues I did recently a calculation which has been published long time ago using a old WIEN2k version (in 2008). It corresponds to a spin-polarized calculation for the compound CuO. The symmetry is removed and the idea is to estimate the total energies for different magnetic orders

Dear Bhamu In the present case, you are dealing with Ag+ ions and thus a d10 electronic configuration for silver. In such a case applying a Hubbard correction will mainly lead to correct the position of the Ag(4d) states which are all occupied and below the O(2p) band. It should not affect

Dear Bhamu First of all, your band gap to be accurate need many kpoints when taken from the SCF file. The best is to plot the band structure. Then you will have the fundamental band gap, not the optical band gap (usually larger). In your case, you must also include the spin-orbit coupling

To properly describe an exciton, which is a two-particle entitie, you need a two-particle theory at least. DFT is a one particle theory, thus it is not suited to properly describe excitonic effects. For solids you must use the Bethe Salpeter Equation (BSE) which is implemented in other codes
