Dear All,

I am confused about occupations in Ti pseudopotential (no matter it is pbe, 
blyp, or anything else). In the UPF file, it is written like this :
nl pn? l?? occ????????????? 
3S? 3? 0? 2.00????? 
3P? 3? 1? 6.00????? 
4S? 4? 0? 2.00????? 
3D? 3? 2? 1.00? 


Everyone knows that electron configuration of Ti is [Ar] 4s(2) 3d(2), so my 
questions are :

1) Why occupation of 3d in the UPF is 1, not 2 instead (according to Ti 
electron conf.) ?

2) In case I want to insert ion Ti4+ into my crystal system, how could I assure 
that the Ti pseudopotential is in 4+ ion state, not 3+ state ?

Best regards,

Iwan D.
