Regarding meta-GGA in the HP code, no plans for the near future. If you are interested in this, your contribution would be welcome.


Cheers,

Iurii

Dear Abhirup,


Currently the HP code does not support meta-GGA functionals (including SCAN). I have just added a check in the code, and now it will stop smoothly when one tries to use HP with meta-GGA. Thank you for reporting the issue!


Greetings,

Iurii

Subject: [QE-users] Error while using SCAN functional in hp.x

Hello,

I am trying to use the hp.x module to get self-consistent U for some systems. It works pretty well when I use PBE, however crashes with the following error while using SCAN with libxc-4.3.4-

      atom #  1   q point #   1   iter #   3
      kpoint   1 hp_solve_linear_system: root not converged, thresh <        NaN
      kpoint   2 hp_solve_linear_system: root not converged, thresh <        NaN
      kpoint   3 hp_solve_linear_system: root not converged, thresh <        NaN
      kpoint   4 hp_solve_linear_system: root not converged, thresh <        NaN

 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     Error in routine broyden (1):
     factorization

Any idea how to solve this?

Thanks,
Abhirup
