Journal ArticleDOI

DFTB+, a software package for efficient approximate density functional theory based atomistic simulations

TL;DR: An overview of the recently developed capabilities of the DFTB+ code is given, demonstrating with a few use case examples, and the strengths and weaknesses of the various features are discussed, to discuss on-going developments and possible future perspectives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Order-N Green's function technique for local environment effects in alloys.

TL;DR: A new approach to the calculations of ground state properties of large crystalline systems with arbitrary atomic configurations based on a Green's function technique in conjunction with a self-consistent effective medium for the underlyi is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-Reversible Born-Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics

TL;DR: The proposed molecular dynamics scheme combines a low computational cost with a physically correct time-reversible representation, which preserves a detailed balance between propagation forwards and backwards in time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extended Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics

TL;DR: The proposed Lagrangian includes extended electronic degrees of freedom as auxiliary dynamical variables in addition to the nuclear coordinates and momenta to enable the application of higher-order symplectic or geometric integration schemes that are stable and energy conserving even under incomplete self-consistency convergence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expansion algorithm for the density matrix

TL;DR: It is shown that the computational complexity, measured as the number of matrix multiplications, essentially is independent of system size even for metallic materials with a vanishing band gap.
