Dear Yin-Ying, Hi. My understanding is that since Hubbard model is valid on localized basis sets (if very much localized, then only on-site correction is enough) and since Wannier functions are localized ones, them that basis well represents the Hubbard corrections.

In this example, the procedure begins with a self-consistent field (SCF) calculation without the incorporation of Wannier functions (wf) and with very small Hubbard parameters (around 0.001). This is followed by the execution of pmw.x and a subsequent second SCF calculation, this time including Wannier functions and the Hubbard U parameters. My question pertains to the rationale behind this two-step SCF calculation approach, particularly concerning the Hubbard U parameters. Why is it not recommended or feasible to employ the Hubbard U parameters right from the first SCF calculation? Understanding the underlying reasoning for this process would greatly enhance my comprehension of the method and its applications. I appreciate any insights or explanations you can provide. Thank you for your time and assistance.
