In the present letter, we report the extension of our Wannier-function-based ab initio Hartree-Fock approach---meant originally for three-dimensional crystalline insulators---to deal with quasi-one-dimensional periodic systems such as…
A recently proposed approach for performing electronic-structure calculations on crystalline insulators in terms of localized orthogonal orbitals is applied to the oxides of lithium and sodium, Li2O and Na2O. Cohesive energies, lattice…
An ab initio Hartree-Fock approach aimed at directly obtaining the localized orthogonal orbitals (Wannier functions) of a crystalline insulator is described in detail. The method is used to perform all-electron calculations on the ground…
An ab initio Wannier-function-based approach to electronic ground-state calculations for crystalline solids is outlined. In the framework of the linear combination of atomic orbitals method the infinite character of the solid is rigorously…
We present a wavefunction-based approach to correlated ab initio calculations on crystalline insulators of infinite extent. It uses the representation of the occupied and the unoccupied (virtual) single-particle states of the infinite solid…
Correlated {\em ab initio} electronic structure calculations are reported for the polymers lithium hydride chain $[LiH]_{\infty}$ and beryllium hydride $[Be_{2}H_{4}]_{\infty}$. First, employing a Wannier-function-based approach, the…
We describe a method to calculate the electronic properties of an insulator under an applied electric field. It is based on the minimization of an electric enthalpy functional with respect to the orbitals, which behave as Wannier functions…
A standard task in solid state physics and quantum chemistry is the computation of localized molecular orbitals known as Wannier functions. In this manuscript, we propose a new procedure for computing Wannier functions in one-dimensional…
The Hartree-Fock equations are modified to directly yield Wannier functions following a proposal of Shukla et al. [Chem. Phys. Lett. 262, 213-218 (1996)]. This approach circumvents the a posteriori application of the Wannier transformation…
When using Wannier functions to study the electronic structure of multi-parameter Hamiltonians $H^{(\boldsymbol k,\bf \lambda)}$ carrying a dependence on crystal momentum $\boldsymbol k$ and an additional periodic parameter $\bf\lambda$,…
In this paper we present an approach aimed at calculating the optical dielectric constant of crystalline insulators both at the Hartree-Fock, and correlated levels. Our scheme employs a real-space methodology, employing Wannier functions as…
In this paper we present an approach aimed at performing many-body calculations of Born-effective charges of crystalline insulators, by including the electron-correlation effects. The scheme is implemented entirely in the real space, using…
A new method for the localization of crystalline orbitals for entangled energy bands is proposed. It is an extension of the Wannier-Boys algorithm [C. M. Zicovich-Wilson, R. Dovesi, and V. R. Saunders, J. Chem. Phys. 115, 9708 (2001)] which…
Ab initio determination of model Hamiltonian parameters for strongly correlated materials is a key issue in applying many-particle theoretical tools to real narrow-band materials. We propose a self-contained calculation scheme to construct,…
Wannier functions provide a localized representation of spectral subspaces of periodic Hamiltonians, and play an important role for interpreting and accelerating Hartree-Fock and Kohn-Sham density functional theory calculations in quantum…
We present a formal expression for Wannier functions of composite bands of 1-D Bloch electrons in terms of parallel-transported Bloch functions and their non-Abelian geometric phases. Spatial decay properties of these Wannier functions are…
We consider a real periodic Schr\"odinger operator and a physically relevant family of $m \geq 1$ Bloch bands, separated by a gap from the rest of the spectrum, and we investigate the localization properties of the corresponding composite…
We propose an improved scheme to construct many-body trial wave functions for fractional Chern insulators (FCI), using one-dimensional localized Wannier basis. The procedure borrows from the original scheme on a continuum cylinder, but is…
In insulators, the method of Marzari and Vanderbilt [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 56}, 12847 (1997)] can be used to generate maximally localized Wannier functions whose centers are related to the electronic polarization. In the case of layered…
We discuss a method for constructing generalized Wannier functions that are maximally localized at the minima of a one-dimensional periodic potential with a double-well per unit cell. By following the approach of (Marzari M and Vanderbilt D…
