A systematic study of the structural, electronic, and optical properties of cage-like boron clusters, with the number of constituent atoms ranging from 20 to 122, has been carried out within the framework of density-functional theory (DFT),…

The stability of graphene multivacancy systems is studied using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. This work describes the evolution of the energy of formation per carbon atom for zigzag and armchair complementary figures -i.e.…

In this work, we use density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the structural and electronic properties of B$_7$Y$_2$ clusters -- boron frameworks doped with two yttrium atoms. Our results show that the most stable configuration adopts…

We investigate the properties of clusters formed from two connected $\mathrm{Ge_{m}}$ cage-like clusters, such as experimentally synthesized $\mathrm{Au_3Ge_{18}^{5-}}$, using first-principles DFT methods. We focus particularly on…

Network's resilience to the malfunction of its components has been of great concern. The goal of this work is to determine the network design guidelines, which maximizes the network efficiency while keeping the cost of the network (that is…

The cluster multipole (CMP) expansion for magnetic structures provides a scheme to systematically generate candidate magnetic structures specifically including noncollinear magnetic configurations adapted to the crystal symmetry of a given…

Since their discovery nearly a decade ago, plutonium-based superconductors have attracted considerable interest, which is now heightened by the latest discovery of superconductivity in PuCoIn5. In the framework of density functional theory…

We report equilibrium geometric structures of CuO2, CuO3, CuO6, and CuO clusters obtained by an all-electron linear combination of atomic orbitals scheme within the density-functional theory with generalized gradient approximation to…

The prediction of new high entropy oxides (HEOs) remains a profound challenge due to their inherent chemical complexity. In this work, we combine experimental and computational methods to search for new HEOs in the tetravalent $A$O$_2$…

Size-selected anionic silicon clusters, Sin- (n=14-20), have been investigated by photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Low-energy structures of the clusters are globally searched for by using a…

The adsorption profiles and electronic structures of Pt$_n$ (n = 1--4) clusters on stoichiometric, reduced and reconstructed rutile TiO$_2$(110) surfaces were systematically studied using on site d-d Coulomb interaction corrected hybrid…

The consistency between the exchange-correlation functional used in pseudopotential construction and in the actual density functional theory calculation is essential for the accurate prediction of fundamental properties of materials.…

The phase behavior and kinetic pathways of Li1+xV3O8 are investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) and a cluster expansion (CE) methodology that approximates the system Hamiltonian in order to identify the lowest energy…

This paper presents a fast method for global search of atomic structures at ab initio level. The structures global optimization (SGO) engine consists of a high-efficiency differential evolution algorithm, accelerated local relaxation…

Dynamic analyses are a standard approach to analyzing and testing concurrent programs. Such techniques observe program traces and analyze them to infer the presence or absence of bugs. At its core, each analysis maintains a partial order…

Assessing small-signal stability of power systems composed of thousands of interacting generators is a computationally challenging task. To reduce the computational burden, this paper introduces a novel condition to assess and certify…

Small clusters of the As/Sb-S/Se system that is of importance for simulation of elementary structure units of chalcogenide glasses are calculated using DFT technique. Different structures of As2Xn- and Sb2Xn- (X=S,Se) with proper hydrogen…

Structural balance theory studies stability in networks. Given a $n$-vertex complete graph $G=(V,E)$ whose edges are labeled positive or negative, the graph is considered \emph{balanced} if every triangle either consists of three positive…
