Thank you Dr.Víctor Luaña and Dr Karel Vyborny My problem is that I found two results that give different electronic behavior Depending on Dr. Fabien Tran response, HF overestimate the gap. And I think GW, GGA+U and mBJ potential are better adapt to estimate the gap and I think their results fo

In my opinion, you can't say that. Some authors would do this but I don't think this is a good scientific practice. You can present results of all four calculations of course, but then it is just to say that regarding the size of the gap ("positive or negative") the results are inconclusive. It

thank you for your answers But for my problem is what I have to say that the material is semimetalic since this result is obtained with GW, GGA+U and mBJ?. Or I have to present all the results even those obtained by HF and I would say that the calculations gave different results pending confirmati

[Wien] Gap calculated with GGA+U, mBJ and HF

Dear Wien2k users; I calculated the gap of a material whose experimental value is unknown. With GGA+U, mBJ potential and GW, I found that this material is semimetal (a slight band overlap) but with HF i found it to be semiconductor of very small gap. How can I know what is the real nature of the
