that's the fault of the Ritz's variational principle, boys!

Stefano .. yes, I agree .. but just in principle.
In practice I have came across tested pseudopotentials that give
good results for the solid, however, they have ghosts. I think I can
give as examples the Pb, Tl and Bi pseudos in the uspp pseudopotentials
library. There is a ghost that do not appear in the tests with bessel
functions but if you go to deep enough in energy (down to -8 ry) in the
calculation of the log derivatives you should see it (I still should
have those tests somewhere). So the program some how must be omitting
that ghost probably because is out of the range of interest.
Any ways, I think it is a very extended practice to keep an eye only on
the range of energy of the solid when designing the psps. (If I remember
well that is even a recommendation in some tutorials (uspp?)).
Thanks, L.

Hi again,
I corrected the error in the input file for testing, but still
ld1.x is giving the message below in testing mode only.
It does not appear when generating and testing at the same time.
I am also finishing up programming the kubo formula and do not have time
to dig into the ld1 code now, so any info would be much appreciated.
Thanks, L.
---------------------------------------------------------
The ld1.x message is:
from compute phi : info # -1
negative determinant
1 ld= -0.022618 f2ae 1.185735 faenor 0.377893
The input files are:

No .. I am definitely wrong .. I checked my notes and those are states
of the all electron hamiltonian. But je .. I still think I came across
that case ..

That is the case but it is dangerous practice.
Sorry for the monologue .. it's been a long coughing night, L.
