Actually, it is better to start the calculation with alpha=0.05 just after a
PBE calculation:
1) PBE calculation
2) save_lapw PBE
3) init_hf_lapw (choose alpha=0.05 in case.inhf)
4) run_lapw -hf ...

Subject: [Wien] Converging full hybrid calculation
Dear All,
For converging full hybrid calculation I have done the following;
(1) Initially the simulation was running with alpha=0.25. As this parameter is
not leading to the convergence, I have stopped it.
(2) I have executed clean_lapw to remove case.vectorhf from earlier calculation
(3) Set alpha=0.05 & started the simulation
Although I have reached the energy convergence criteria 0.0001, the charge
convergence is oscillating around 0.01. Should I decrease alpha, even more, to
get the charge convergence & eventually get back to alpha=0.25 at the end after
getting the required convergence?
with regards,
