Changes affecting the usage

  • Even-tempered basis sets can be set with input variables: even_tempered_alpha, even_tempered_beta, even_tempered_n_list.
  • RPA, RPA+, RPAx (RPAx-II) are triggered with postscf values: RPA, RPA+, RPAx-II, RPAx-I

Changes affecting the compilation

  • Compilation is by default with LIBXC and LIBCINT. Use preprocessor variable -DNO_LIBXC or -DNO_LIBCINT if you want to do otherwise.
    Do not use -DHAVE_LIBCINT any longer, else a series of warnings may be issued.
  • A global Makefile has been created in the root.

What's new in version 3.0

Overview

  • LIBCINT library as an alternative to LIBINT
  • Natural Orbital Functional Theory (NOFT)
  • GW calculations with W from TDDFT
  • pseudopotential in numerical format PSP6 or PSP8 can be used
  • LIBXC functionals can be called directly if one knows their unique LIBXC index
  • expansion of the python utilities in molgw.py
  • new basis functions (Dunning 7Z)
  • various bug fixes, typos

Contributors

  • Fabien Bruneval (SRMP, CEA, Université Paris-Saclay, France)
  • Mauricio Rodriguez-Mayorga (Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, Netherlands)
  • Nike Dattani (HPQC Labs, Waterloo, Canada)
  • Zohreh Hashemi (University of Bayreuth, Germany)

Changes affecting the usage

  • Natural orbital functional theory (a.k.a. reduced density matrix functional theory) approximations are now available for singlet-states.
    NOFT calculations are triggered with postscf='NOFT'.
    The corresponding input variables start with noft_. Available functionals include: Muller, power, PNOF5, and PNOF7.
  • Dynamical self-energy correlation contribution and Spectral weight Z are now reported for omega=E_qp instead of omega=E_gKS.
  • postscf='GWTDDFT' triggers the calculation of W with HF or TDDFT kernel included.
  • MOLGW can use "solid-state" norm-conserving pseudopotentials in the PSP6 or PSP8 format (from pseudo-dojo.org for instance).
    This is slow but functional. It is intended for tests.
  • Python script to extract the basis set from a Gaussian formatted checkpoint file (.fchk): create_basis_from_gaussian_fchk.py.
  • All the LIBXC functionals can be called directly with syntax: scf='LIBXC:101+130' for PBE for instance.
  • Possibility to tune the cube file output with new input variables cube_nx, cube_ny, cube_nz, cube_state_min, cube_state_max.
  • Possibility to output the transition density in BSE/TDDFT.
  • Possibility to read Gaussian cube files with molgw.py

Changes affecting the compilation

  • The C library LIBCINT can replace LIBINT with noticeable advantages.
    LIBCINT is easy to compile on any architecture (it's coded in plain C) and its compilation time is low.
    According to our tests, LIBCINT appears as twice faster than LIBINT at runtime.
    To use LIBCINT, my_machine.arch should contain LIBCINT=-lcint and preprocessing option -DHAVE_LIBCINT

Changes affecting the developers

  • LIBCINT library offers many integral types that were not available with LIBINT. New opportunities are open.

  • MOLGW automatically detects the LIBINT configuration. Easier compilation
  • Possibility to add point charges in the structure

Contributors

  • Fabien Bruneval (CEA SRMP, France)

Changes affecting the usage

  • Fractional point charges (without basis functions) can be specified in the structure using the syntax:
    q x y z none none

Changes affecting the compilation

  • MOLGW can be linked against LIBXC 5
  • MOLGW detects LIBINT configuration to know wheter the one-body integrals and the gradients are available. Preprocessor instructions such as -DHAVE_LIBNIT_ONEDOBY are not needed anymore.

What's new in version 2.E

Overview

  • MOLGW proposes automatically an extrapolated GW energy to the Complete Basis Set limit when using Dunning basis sets
  • GW with analytic continuation is now robust for the HOMO-LUMO gap region. Tested for C60 in aug-cc-pV5Z (>7500 basis functions)
  • small bug fixes, speed-ups, memory reductions

Contributors

  • Fabien Bruneval (CEA SRMP, France)
  • Xixi Qi (CEA SRMP, France)
  • Mauricio Rodriguez-Mayorga (CEA SRMP, France)

Changes affecting the usage

  • Automatic suggestion of an extrapolation to the Complete Basis Set limit for GW energies
  • GW analytic continuation technique is fully functional. Use postscf='G0W0_pade'. It is much faster than the analytic formula but it is mostly reliable close to the HOMO-LUMO gap.
  • Reduced memory consumption in the Pulay history (SCALAPACK distribution of the large arrays)
  • Improved OPENMP

Changes affecting the compilation

  • Assuming now that all Fortran compilers have Fortran 2008 capabilities. Preprocessor key FORTRAN2008 has been removed.

Changes affecting the developers

  • Introduce high-level mpi tools for instance, world%sum() for reduction, world%nproc, world%rank for information

What's new in version 2.D

Overview

  • Compatibility with gcc/gfortran 10
  • Basis files location can be set from an environment variable MOLGW_BASIS_PATH
  • Printing of standard WFN files

Contributors

  • Fabien Bruneval (CEA SRMP, France)
  • Mauricio Rodriguez-Mayorga (CEA SRMP, France)

Changes affecting the usage

  • Keyword print_wfn_file triggers the output of a standard WFN file that can be read with external visualization softwares.
  • Environment variable MOLGW_BASIS_PATH sets the path to the basis files. It is still be overridden by the input keyword basis_path.
  • New default value for postscf_diago_flavor=' '. Though faster, the former default value was not stable enough for large systems.

Changes affecting the compilation

  • GCC 10 is very picky on the routine calls without an interfaces. Many existing calls to BLAS/LAPACK/SCALAPACK had to be fixed.
  • Makefile, my_machine.arch use more standard FCFLAGS and CXXFLAGS variables instead of FCOPTS and CXXOPTS
  • Fortran long lines have been chopped into pieces so to comply with the 132 character limit of Fortran.
    Compiler options such as -ffree-line-length-none are not needed any more.

Changes affecting the developers

  • Please respect the 132-character limit of Fortran.

  • Keyword stopping triggers the linear-response stopping power calculation
  • Value postscf='real_time' triggers real-time TDDFT (RT-TDDFT)

  • OPENMP parallelisation effort is pursued
  • Bug fix of the output of the COHSEX energies (bug discovered by Arjan Berger)

Changes affecting the compilation

  • LIBXC is now linked through the C interface. Therefore, LIBXC compilation does not need to be consistent with MOLGW compilation.
    The latest version of LIBXC can be used. Preprocessing flag -DLIBXC4 is no longer needed.
  • Preprocessing option -DHAVE_MKL allows for the use of MKL extensions and in particular of DGEMMT.
  • Use of modern Fortran2008 syntax, such as c%re to obtain the real part of a complex number. Code imcompatible with older compilers (gfortran > 9.0 necessary)

Changes affecting the developers
