Wavelets for electronic structure calculations
In 2005, the EU FP6-STREP-NEST BigDFT project funded a consortium of four laboratories, with the aim of developing a novel approach for Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations based on Daubechies wavelets. Rather than simply building a DFT code from scratch, the objective of this three-years project was to test the potential benefit of a new formalism in the context of electronic structure...
متن کاملDaubechies wavelets as a basis set for density functional pseudopotential calculations.
Daubechies wavelets are a powerful systematic basis set for electronic structure calculations because they are orthogonal and localized both in real and Fourier space. We describe in detail how this basis set can be used to obtain a highly efficient and accurate method for density functional electronic structure calculations. An implementation of this method is available in the ABINIT free soft...

An efficient numerical quadrature for the calculation of the potential energy of wavefunctions expressed in the Daubechies wavelet basis. Abstract. An efficient numerical quadrature is proposed for the approximate calculation of the potential energy in the context of pseudo potential electronic structure calculations with Daubechies wavelet and scaling function basis sets. Our quadrature is als...
متن کاملApplication of Daubechies wavelets for solving Kuramoto-Sivashinsky type equations
We show how Daubechies wavelets are used to solve Kuramoto-Sivashinsky type equations with periodic boundary condition. Wavelet bases are used for numerical solution of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky type equations by Galerkin method. The numerical results in comparison with the exact solution prove the efficiency and accuracy of our method.
متن کاملDaubechies wavelets for linear scaling density functional theory.
We demonstrate that Daubechies wavelets can be used to construct a minimal set of optimized localized adaptively contracted basis functions in which the Kohn-Sham orbitals can be represented with an arbitrarily high, controllable precision. Ground state energies and the forces acting on the ions can be calculated in this basis with the same accuracy as if they were calculated directly in a Daub...
