Development of a fast-fourier-transform fully numerical program for density functional theory calculations

Cel



A fully-numerical program for Density Functional Theory calculations wi be developed. The proposed approach is an amalgamation between the basis-set-free scheme of Becke (which gives a very good description of the atomic cores but is quite slow when performing the required numerical interpolations), and the plane-wave method used in solid state physics (which is extremely fast for numerical interpolation, thanks to the use of the Fast Fourier Transform, but gives a rather poor description of the atomic cores). It is expected that this new approach will incorporate the advantages of both methods, but not their respective drawbacks. In particular, we expect a good description of the nuclear cusps, and a fast algorithm (because the new procedure will allow the use of the Fast Fourier Transform). Central to the proposed approach is a change of variables that warps space towards the nuclei, thus allowing an accurate treatment of the atomic cores, while, by using a uniform grid in the new variables, the Fast Fourier Transform will be feasible.
