No, I did NOT do any constrains. runsp -orb save_lapw ... runsp -eece absolutely no convergence problems !!! PS: My current ifort version (2016.3.210) fails to compile lapwdm properly. It over-optimizes even with -O1. Had to use -O0, otherwise I got runtime errors. On 01/23/2017 08:08 AM,

Thank you Peter for your reply. I had no doubt that it was possible to converge the calculation using such strategy. My point was that such calculation was easy to converge starting from the scratch, directly using PBE0 and without constraining the total magnetic moment of the unit cell. At

Sorry, but I cannot reproduce this. Starting from a converged GGA+U calculation, -eece converges smoothly, keeps the :mmt at 8 uB and a reasonable gap of 1.6 eV and :MV goes to 10-4. (quick test with few k-points and rkmax only 6.5) Am 20.01.2017 um 22:16 schrieb Laurence Marks: I can

:MV is in case.scfm, e.g. grep :MV *.scf. A value of 1D-2 is well converged, 1D0 is maybe OK, 1D1 or more is problematic and can indicate a problem if :DIS etc is small. N.B., you can also look at the quadrature fit of x lapw0 -eece in case.output0 --- Professor Laurence Marks "Research is to

Dear Laurence Thank you so much for your detailled replies. I agree that something curious happens here. In particular, my surprise is why the convergency is fast and leads to a ferromagnetic solution in GGA+U and not in PBE0 on-site hybrid. These two schemes must be quite similar in the way

N.B., in the 16 version if you reduce the GREED to 0.1 it does what people think reducing the mixing factor does (in the unwritten literature). It does not do it the way people think, this there are many misconceptions in the literature about mixing. The latest version does this by turning on a

I can provide some partial responses, although there are also some things that I don't understand. Some of this (maybe most) is not the mixer but in other parts of Wien2k. First, the old (2008) version is there if you use MSEC1, but I have not tested it and it may fail. Better is to use MSEC3

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
