<div dir="ltr"><div>FHI pseudopotentials do not contain information on the reference atomic configuration used in their generation. This is manually provided during the conversion to UPF format. It looks like a mistake. Just exchange the occupancies of 4p and 3d states: they are used only when generating the starting charge for self-consistency, and as a check to prevent usage of non-bound aromic states as Hubbard manifold.<br><br></div><div>Paolo<br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Nov 27, 2016 at 2:42 PM, Hanghui Chen <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:chenhanghuipwscf@gmail.com" target="_blank">chenhanghuipwscf@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">To whom it may concern,<div> I noticed an anomaly with the psp Ti.pbe-mt_fhi.UPF in the library.

Therefore for this psp of Ti, I can not turn on U on its d orbital. I am just curious, is "occupancy of the correlated orbital > 0" a strict condition? Can we make it "occupancy of the correlated orbital >= 0"?
