TLDR
In this article, most mechanistic studies regarding the role of hydrogen bonding in catalytic reactions are focused on hydrogen bonding and its role in orienting intermediates, stabilizing transition states, and opening reaction pathways.
Abstract
Hydrogen bonding accelerates many catalytic reactions by orienting intermediates, stabilizing transition states, and even opening reaction pathways. However, most mechanistic studies regarding the ...

Efficient iterative schemes for ab initio total-energy calculations using a plane-wave basis set.

TL;DR: An efficient scheme for calculating the Kohn-Sham ground state of metallic systems using pseudopotentials and a plane-wave basis set is presented and the application of Pulay's DIIS method to the iterative diagonalization of large matrices will be discussed.

Projector augmented-wave method

TL;DR: An approach for electronic structure calculations is described that generalizes both the pseudopotential method and the linear augmented-plane-wave (LAPW) method in a natural way and can be used to treat first-row and transition-metal elements with affordable effort and provides access to the full wave function.

From ultrasoft pseudopotentials to the projector augmented-wave method

TL;DR: In this paper, the formal relationship between US Vanderbilt-type pseudopotentials and Blochl's projector augmented wave (PAW) method is derived and the Hamilton operator, the forces, and the stress tensor are derived for this modified PAW functional.

Efficiency of ab-initio total energy calculations for metals and semiconductors using a plane-wave basis set

TL;DR: A detailed description and comparison of algorithms for performing ab-initio quantum-mechanical calculations using pseudopotentials and a plane-wave basis set is presented in this article. But this is not a comparison of our algorithm with the one presented in this paper.
