<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dear Kosuke Nakano,<br>
the total charge option acts on deciding the number of states
used and how to fix the fermi energy/chemical potential.<br>
the occupation matrix return the projection of the occupied
manifold (determined by the previous recipe) on the localized
states so it should be what one expects it to be.<br>
so yes it looks like it's Ni ~ +2 (d8) but with partial
occupation of the eg orbitals and NOT spin polarized... Is this
what you expect/desire ?.<br>
Did you suggest a starting magnetization to see it the system does
not prefer being d5_up d3_dw ?<br>
