XC non-linear core correction<br />
• On the reduced real-space grid, electron charge depends only on<br />
−1<br />
Ω<br />
• Model core charge has a detailed dependence on<br />
– Resulting analysis is rather complex<br />
Ξ ij<br />
• Core charges must be extremely smooth functions to avoid significant<br />
convergence errors<br />
– Reason: Strain <strong>and</strong> atomic position derivatives <strong>of</strong> the xc self-interaction <strong>of</strong> a<br />
single core don’t cancel point-by-point on the grid, but only in the integral<br />
– Inconsistencies in the treatment <strong>of</strong> the core charges <strong>and</strong> their derivatives in<br />
some Src_2psp/psp*cc.f routines makes matters worse
