<div> </div>
<div>is reproducible using QE-7.1, and found out that it is "YES" !</div>
<div>So, I am mostly convinced that in the new release the "hard-coded" has been promoted to the "easy-coded"</div>

<div>Dear <span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt;">Mahmoud,</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt;">Please have a look at the new documentation in QE/Doc/Hubbard_input.pdf.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont" size="3">In the new </font><font face="Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont">input</font><font face="Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont" size="3"> you need to specify to which manifold you are applying the Hubbard U correction. For Uranium it could be 5f or 6d or both. So if you want to apply U to 6d states then the input syntax is:</font></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">HUBBARD {atomic}</span><br style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;" />
<span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U1-6d 4.0</span><br style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;" />
<span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U2-6d 4.0</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">If instead you want to apply U to 5f states then:</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">HUBBARD {atomic}</span><br style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;" />
<span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U1-5f 4.0</span><br style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;" />
<span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U2-5f 4.0</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">If you want to apply U to both then</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">HUBBARD {atomic}</span><br style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;" />
<span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U1-5f 4.0</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U1-6d 4.0</span><br style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;" />
<span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U2-5f 4.0</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">U U2-6d 4.0</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">Of course the value of U should be different for 5f and 6d manifolds.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont">From our experience, "ortho-atomic" Hubbard projectors are more accurate than "atomic". Note that when one changes the projector type also the value of U changes.</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont">The value of U can be computed from first-principles using the HP code: </font><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><a class="OWAAutoLink" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0010465522001746" id="LPlnk616084" previewremoved="true">https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0010465522001746</a></span></div>
<div>However, currently the HP code cannot be used to compute U when there are two (or more) Hubbard channels per atomic type.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please let us know if there are still any issues with the new Hubbard input syntax (in this case provide the full input and output files).</div>

<div> </div>
<div>Thank you for this reference! I am going to read it. </div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">> You argue that since O atom is not magnetic, the starting_magnetization for that atom is taken to be zero.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I was not precise enough. I meant for FeO, while in general this might not be the case (I don't have much experience with this though).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In the older versions of QE the starting_magnetization for O was 0.0. And the calculations were converging to the solution where the magnetic moments on O are zero. That's why I removed starting_magnetization for O in the new example which means that the default value of 0.0 is used for O. I tried to specify the finite value of starting_magnetization for O in FeO but still the calculation convergences to the solution where the magnetic moments on O are zero.</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Tahoma, serif, EmojiFont;">> By "hard-coded" I do not understand what you mean.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I mean that it is implemented in the routine PW/src/tabd.f90 in the older version of QE and that it was not possible to change these parameters from the input file. In contrast, in QE7.1 the starting atomic occupations of Hubbard atoms can be controlled from the input (but by default they are read from the pseudopotentials).</div>

<div>FeO is metallic in DFT while it is insulting in nature. The difference between the new and old behaviour of QE is the starting occupations of the Fe-3d manifold. In older versions of QE (before 7.1) the <font size="3">starting occupations are hard-coded to be 6 (see PW/src/tabd.f90</font><font size="3">) while in QE7.1 the starting occupations are read from the </font>pseudopotential (in this particular example it is 7). It turns out that in this example different starting occupations for Fe-3d states lead to the convergence to different metallic ground states of FeO, but in any case both are wrong ground states (one needs +U and to use starting_ns_eignevalue to open a gap and thus obtain the correct ground state). But if you want to restore the old behaviour of QE in the new version (i.e. 7.1) you need to specify in the input the new keyword Hubbard_occ(1,1) = 6.0 and <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hubbard_occ(2,1) = 6.0 (because you have Fe1 and Fe2) </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- in this case the code reads the starting occupations from the input and not from the pseudopotential. </span><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></div>
