Many-body perturbation theory methods, such as the $G_0W_0$ approximation, are able to accurately predict quasiparticle (QP) properties of several classes of materials. However, the calculation of the QP band structure of two-dimensional…
The k.p method is a semi-empirical approach which allows to extrapolate the band structure of materials from the knowledge of a restricted set of parameters evaluated in correspondence of a single point of the reciprocal space. In the first…
An efficient method for calculating the electronic structure in large systems with a fully converged BZ sampling is presented. The method is based on a k.p-like approximation developed in the framework of the density functional perturbation…
The electronic energy band structure of strained and unstrained Si, Ge and SiGe alloys is examined in this work using thirty-level k.p analysis. The energy bands are at first obtained with ab initio calculations based on the…
Structured kernel interpolation (SKI) accelerates Gaussian process (GP) inference by interpolating the kernel covariance function using a dense grid of inducing points, whose corresponding kernel matrix is highly structured and thus…
Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) is a powerful method to obtain key materials' properties, but the iterative solution of the KS equations is a numerically intensive task, which limits its application to complex systems. To…
In this paper we present a locally and dimension-adaptive sparse grid method for interpolation and integration of high-dimensional functions with discontinuities. The proposed algorithm combines the strengths of the generalised sparse grid…
We propose a non grid-based interpolation scheme based on the information from the data collected from the vicinity of the query point. As a non-grid-based interpolation, the data points can be distributed randomly in a small region, and…
Many material and biological samples in scientific imaging are characterized by non-local repeating structures. These are studied using scanning electron microscopy and electron tomography. Sparse sampling of individual pixels in a 2D image…
Accurate modeling of electronic properties of nanostructures is a challenging theoretical problem. Methods making use of continuous media approximation, such as k.p, sometimes struggle to reproduce results obtained with more accurate…
An adaptive interpolation scheme is proposed to accurately calculate the wideband responses in electromagnetic simulations. In the proposed scheme, the sampling points are first carefully divided into several groups based on their responses…
Boltzmann transport calculations based on band structures generated with density functional theory (DFT) are often used in the discovery and analysis of thermoelectric materials. In standard implementations, such calculations require dense…
Estimating parameters and properties of various materials without causing damage to the material under test (MUT) is important in many applications. Thus, in this letter, we address this by wireless sensing. Here, the accuracy of the…
We consider scattered data approximation on product regions of equal and different dimensionality. On each of these regions, we assume quasi-uniform but unstructured data sites and construct optimal sparse grids for scattered data…

Discrete empirical interpolation method (DEIM) estimates a function from its incomplete pointwise measurements. Unfortunately, DEIM suffers large interpolation errors when few measurements are available. Here, we introduce Sparse DEIM…
Kohn-Sham (KS) density functional theory (DFT) is a very efficient method for calculating various properties of solids as, for instance, the total energy, the electron density, or the electronic band structure. The KS-DFT method leads to…
