We present an automatized approach towards maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) applicable to both occupied and unoccupied states. We overcome limitations of the standard optimized projection function (OPF) method and its…
We present a robust algorithm that computes (maximally localized) Wannier functions (WFs) without the need of providing an initial guess. Instead, a suitable starting point is constructed automatically from so-called local orbitals which…
Maximally localized Wannier functions are widely used in electronic structure theory for analyses of bonding, electric polarization, orbital magnetization, and for interpolation. The state of the art method for their construction is based…

Maximally-localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) are widely employed as an essential tool for calculating the physical properties of materials due to their localized nature and computational efficiency. Projectability-disentangled Wannier…
We present Wannier90, a program for calculating maximally-localised Wannier functions (MLWF) from a set of Bloch energy bands that may or may not be attached to or mixed with other bands. The formalism works by minimising the total spread…
Maximally-localised Wannier functions (MLWFs) are routinely used to compute from first-principles advanced materials properties that require very dense Brillouin zone integration and to build accurate tight-binding models for scale-bridging…

We have developed a linear scaling algorithm for calculating maximally-localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) using atomic orbital basis. An O(N) ground state calculation is carried out to get the density matrix (DM). Through a projection of…
Maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) are conventionally constructed by iteratively minimizing a spread functional over a high-dimensional gauge landscape. In this work, we present a non-variational constructive algorithm that…
A non-iterative method is presented to calculate the closest Wannier functions (CWFs) to a given set of localized guiding functions, such as atomic orbitals, hybrid atomic orbitals, and molecular orbitals, based on minimization of a…
Position scaling-eigenfunctions are generated by transforming compactly supported orthonormal scaling functions and utilized for faster alternatives to maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs). The position scaling-eigenfunctions are…
We introduce a new type of Wannier functions (WFs) obtained by minimizing the conventional spread functional with a penalty term proportional to the variance of the spread distribution. This modified Wannierisation scheme is less prone to…
We present a general method of constructing maximally localized Wannier functions. It consists of three steps: (1) picking a localized trial wave function, (2) performing a full band projection, and (3) orthonormalizing with the Lowdin…
A robust, user-friendly, and automated method to determine quantum conductance in disordered quasi-one-dimensional systems is presented. The scheme relies upon an initial density- functional theory calculation in a specific geometry after…

We show that an optimized projection functions method can automatically construct maximally localized Wannier functions even for bands with nontrivial topology. We demonstrate this method on a tight-binding model of a two-dimensional…
Construction of maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) has been implemented within the linear combination of pseudo-atomic orbital (LCPAO) method. Detailed analysis using MLWFs is applied to three closely related materials, single…
The maximally localized Wannier functions play a very important role in the study of chemical bonding, ballistic transport and strongly-correlated system, etc. A significant development in this branch was made in 1997 and conjectured that…
