The main goal of electronic structure methods is to solve the Schroedinger equation for the electrons in a molecule or solid, to evaluate the resulting total energies, forces, response functions and other quantities of interest. In this…

The Projected Augmented Waves (PAW) method is based on a linear transformation between the pseudo wavefunctions and the all electron wavefunctions. To obtain high accuracy with this method, it is important that the local part of the linear…

In Kohn-Sham electronic structure computations, wave functions have singularities at nuclear positions. Because of these singularities, plane-wave expansions give a poor approximation of the eigenfunctions. In conjunction with the use of…

The purpose of this text is to give a self-contained description of the basic theory of the projector augmented-wave (PAW) method, as well as most of the details required to make the method work in practice. These two topics are covered in…

In this article, a numerical analysis of the projector augmented-wave (PAW) method is presented, restricted to the case of dimension one with Dirac potentials modeling the nuclei in a periodic setting. The PAW method is widely used in…

In the Projector Augmented Wave (PAW) method, a local potential, basis functions, and projector functions form an All-Electron (AE) basis for valence wave functions in the application of Density Functional Theory (DFT). The construction of…

The success behind many pseudopotential methods, such as the Projected Augmented Waves (PAW) and the Phillips-Kleinman pseudopotential methods, is that these methods are nearly all electron methods in disguise. For the Phillips-Kleinman and…

We present a Projector Augmented-Wave~(PAW) method based on a wavelet basis set. We implemented our wavelet-PAW method as a PAW library in the ABINIT package [http://www.abinit.org] and into BigDFT [http://www.bigdft.org]. We test our…

We present valence electron Compton profiles calculated within the density-functional theory using the all-electron full-potential projector augmented-wave method (PAW). Our results for covalent (Si), metallic (Li, Al) and hydrogen-bonded…

The projector augmented wave (PAW) method of Bl\"ochl linearly maps smooth pseudo wavefunctions to the highly oscillatory all-electron DFT orbitals. Compared to norm-conserving pseudopotentials (NCPP), PAW has the advantage of lower kinetic…

Quantum simulation of materials is a promising application area of quantum computers. To practically realize this promise, we must reduce quantum resources while maintaining accuracy. In electronic structure calculations on classical…

A grid-based real-space implementation of the Projector Augmented Wave (PAW) method of P. E. Blochl [Phys. Rev. B 50, 17953 (1994)] for Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations is presented. The use of uniform 3D real-space grids for…

The projector augmented wave (PAW) method of Bl\"ochl makes smooth but non-orthogonal orbitals. Here we show how to make PAW orthogonal, using a cheap transformation of the wave-functions. We show that the resulting Orthogonal PAW (OPAW),…

The projector-augmented wave (PAW) method is one of the approaches that are widely used to approximately treat core electrons and thus to speed-up plane-wave basis set electronic structure calculations. However, PAW involves approximations…

We examine the challenge of performing accurate electronic structure calculations at high pressures by comparing the results of all-electron full potential linearized augmented-plane-wave calculations with those of the projector augmented…

A Projector Augmented Wave (PAW) atomic data file is needed to be generated for each element, and plays in the PAW method the role of the pseudopotential file for norm-conserving (NC) or ultra-soft (US) plane wave calculations. In this…

We show that quasiparticle (QP) energies as calculated in the $GW$ approximation converge to the wrong value using the projector augmented wave (PAW) method, since the overlap integrals between occupied orbitals and high energy, plane wave…

A mixed basis all-electron full-potential method, which uses two kinds of augmented waves, the augmented plane waves and the muffin-tin orbitals simultaneously, in addition to the local orbitals, was proposed by Kotani and van Schilfgaarde…
