      Problem solved. Looking at the three geometries with consistent settings give the same total energy ordering as other codes. Thanks for the pointer.

    • Terry has written a new post "Accuracy of total energy" 02.20.2026

      Ah yes! The change in the geometries between the different configurations drove inpgen to use different MT spheres. That's a trick for young players when comparing energies!

    • Terry has written a new post "Symmetry problem" 02.05.2026

      Yep, that solved the issue. Interestingly six is the right number. If I give seven significant digits in the coordinates I get the wrong symmetry error.

      Thanks for the rapid response.

      Hi Gregor

      My bad. Yes, I must have had a stray density. Cleaning up an rerunning now seems to be working fine.

      Ciao

      Yes, that's great. Thanks Gregor.

    • Hi Gregor

      Can I suggest that the wording of that message might be tweaked a bit? In hindsight I can see what it means, but when I first read it in this thread I had no idea what the touch message meant (even as a full-time linux/unix user for more than two decades! )

      Ciao

      Hi folks

      Does anyone care to comment about accessing "higher rungs" with fleur?

      Ciao

      Hi Gregor

      Thanks for the advice. I will explore those options.

      Ciao

      In out.xml we have:
      <basis nvd="23313" lmaxd="14" nlotot="0"/>

      I didn't specify any options for the diagonalisation when building. The configuration output tells me that SCALAPACK was found (via MKL), but nothing else that looks like diagonalisation. Is that the info you want?

    • Terry has written a new post "Low CPU utilisation" 01.12.2022

      Here's juDFT_times.json (from a slightly different geometry). Run with 32 MPI processes, each allocated 9 cores (9 OpenMP threads) on 28 core broadwell nodes. So up to three MPI processes per node, 11 nodes.

    • Terry has written a new post "Convergence of XPS core levels" 10.13.2021

      I would have expected that the H must be covalently bound to O2-, putting (OH)- into the surface. Viewing ZnO as purely ionic it's not immediately apparent to me how that would make a conductive surface.

      Nonetheless, I guess that is what I was missing was that even by my own argument the surface should be net charged.
