WARNING info of the output file using PAW + LDA

Post by yzk » Wed Dec 21, 2016 8:51 am

Dear abinit friends,

I am facing the warning when using PAW2-LDA, XML PP downloaded from the abinit website.

WARNING -
The matrix seems to have high value(s) !
( 1 components have a value greater than 50.0).
It can cause instabilities during SCF convergence.
Action: you should check your atomic dataset (psp file)
and look for "high" projector functions...

Do you have any suggestion to remove this annoying warning? :( I found many users had encountered such a problem.

Thanks a lot!

Dear yzk,
On which atoms did you get that?
In any case, if your calculation converge without too much troubles then you can continue with it.
All the best,
Eric
