Treecode-accelerated Green iteration for Kohn-Sham density functional theory

نویسندگان

چکیده

We present a real-space computational method called treecode-accelerated Green Iteration (TAGI) for all-electron Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory. TAGI is based on reformulation of the equations in which eigenvalue problem differential form converted into fixed-point integral by convolution with modified Helmholtz Green's function. In each self-consistent field (SCF) iteration, fixed-points are computed Iteration, where discrete sums efficiently evaluated GPU-accelerated barycentric Lagrange treecode. Other techniques used include a-priori adaptive mesh refinement, Fejér quadrature, singularity subtraction, gradient-free update, and Anderson mixing to accelerate convergence SCF Iterations. Ground state energy computations several atoms (Li, Be, O) small molecules (H2, CO, C6H6) demonstrate TAGI's ability achieve chemical accuracy.

Coarse-graining Kohn–Sham Density Functional Theory

We present a real-space formulation for coarse-graining Kohn–Sham Density Functional Theory that significantly speeds up the analysis of material defects without appreciable loss of accuracy. The approximation scheme consists of two steps. First, we develop a linear-scaling method that enables the direct evaluation of the electron density without the need to evaluate individual orbitals. We ach...

Elliptic Preconditioner for Accelerating the Self-Consistent Field Iteration in Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory

We discuss techniques for accelerating the self-consistent field iteration for solving the Kohn–Sham equations. These techniques are all based on constructing approximations to the inverse of the Jacobian associated with a fixed point map satisfied by the total potential. They can be viewed as preconditioners for a fixed point iteration. We point out different requirements for constructing prec...

Optimized local basis set for Kohn-Sham density functional theory

We develop a technique for generating a set of optimized local basis functions to solve models in the Kohn–Sham density functional theory for both insulating and metallic systems. The optimized local basis functions are obtained by solving a minimization problem in an admissible set determined by a large number of primitive basis functions. Using the optimized local basis set, the electron ener...

Element orbitals for Kohn-Sham density functional theory

We present a method to discretize the Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian matrix in the pseudopotential framework by a small set of basis functions automatically contracted from a uniform basis set such as plane waves. Each basis function is localized around an element, which is a small part of the global domain containing multiple atoms. We demonstrate that the resulting basis set achieves meV accuracy for ...

Self-averaging stochastic Kohn-Sham density-functional theory.

We formulate the Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) as a statistical theory in which the electron density is determined from an average of correlated stochastic densities in a trace formula. The key idea is that it is sufficient to converge the total energy per electron to within a predefined statistical error in order to obtain reliable estimates of the electronic band structure, the...
