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 theory for the generation of Wannier functions within the generalized Pipek--Mezey approach [Lehtola, S.; J\'onsson, H. J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2014, 10, 642] is presented and an implementation thereof is described. Results are…

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…

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…

We present a method for obtaining well-localized Wannier-like functions (WFs) for energy bands that are attached to or mixed with other bands. The present scheme removes the limitation of the usual maximally-localized WFs method (N. Marzari…

We report on the implementation of the Wannier Functions (WFs) formalism within the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method (FLAPW), suitable for bulk, film and one-dimensional geometries. The details of the implementation, as…

A procedure to construct symmetry-adapted Wannier functions in the framework of the maximally-localized Wannier function approach[Marzari and Vanderbilt, Phys. Rev. B \textbf{56}, 12847 (1997); Souza, Marzari, and Vanderbilt, \textit{ibid.}…

We propose an algorithm to determine Maximally Localized Wannier Functions (MLWFs). This algorithm, based on recent theoretical developments, does not require any physical input such as initial guesses for the Wannier functions, unlike…

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…

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…

Maximally-localized Wannier functions are quantum wavefunctions resembling atomic orbitals that are used to describe electrons in condensed matter. Since their introduction in 1997, these functions have become ubiquitous in ab initio…

Since the seminal work of Marzari and Vanderbilt, maximally localized Wannier functions have become widely used as a real-space representation of the electronic structure of periodic materials. In this paper we introduce selectively…

Localized Wannier functions provide an efficient and intuitive means by which to compute dielectric properties from first principles. They are most commonly constructed in a post-processing step, following total-energy minimization.…

Wannier functions that are maximally localized help in understanding many properties of crystalline materials. In the absence of topological obstructions, they are at least exponentially localized. In some cases such as flat-band…

We describe a robust method for determining Pipek-Mezey (PM) Wannier functions (WF), recently introduced by J\'onsson et al. (J. Chem. Theor. Chem. 2017, 13, 460), which provide some formal advantages over the more common Boys (also known…

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…
