Daubechies wavelets for linear scaling density functional theory
Daubechies 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 …
