چکیده

A half-numeric algorithm for the evaluation of effective core potential integrals over Cartesian Gaussian functions is described. Local and semilocal integrals are separated into two-dimensional angular and one-dimensional radial integrals. The angular integrals are evaluated analytically using a general approach that has no limitation for the l-quantum number. The radial integrals are calculated by an adaptive one-dimensional numerical quadrature. For the semilocal radial part a pretabulation scheme is used. This pretabulation simplifies the handling of radial integrals, makes their calculation much faster, and allows their easy reuse for different integrals within a given shell combination. The implementation of this new algorithm is described and its performance is analyzed.

TWO LOW-ORDER METHODS FOR THE NUMERICAL EVALUATION OF CAUCHY PRINCIPAL VSlLUE INTEGRALS OF OSCILLATORY KIND

In this paper, we develop two piecewise polynomial methods for the numerical evaluation of Cauchy Principal Value integrals of oscillatory kind. The two piecewisepolynomial quadratures are compact, easy to implement, and are numerically stable. Two numerical examples are presented to illustrate the two rules developed, The convergence of the two schemes is proved and some error bounds obtai...

Quadrature rules for singular integrals on unbounded intervals

The importance of singular and hypersingular integral transforms, coming from their many applications, justifies some interest in their numerical approximation. The literature about the numerical evaluation of such integrals on bounded intervals is wide and quite satisfactory; instead only few papers deal with the numerical evaluation of such integral transforms on half-infinite intervals or on...

Truncated spherical-wave basis set for first-principles pseudopotential calculations

Analytic results for twoand three-centre integrals are derived for the truncated spherical-wave basis set designed for first-principles pseudopotential calculations within density-functional theory. These allow the overlap, kinetic energy and non-local pseudopotential matrix elements to be calculated efficiently and accurately. In particular, the scaling of the computational effort with maximum...
