=======================

The developement of an interface between the Wien2k electronic structure
package and TRIQS has been motivated by a scientific collaboration between the
research groups of Antoine Georges, Silke Biermann (Ecole Polytechnique),
Olivier Parcollet (CEA Saclay).  A first step has been the definition of the
framework and the construction of the projective Wannier functions as input for
the DMFT calculations [#dft_tools1]_.  This has been followed by the introduction
of full charge self-consistency [#dft_tools2]_, necessary for total energy
calculations. The package at hand is fully implemented as an application
based on the TRIQS library [#dft_tools3]_.

Elk converter (#151) Adding Elk-TRIQS interface (first iteration) This interface reads in Elk's ground-state files / projectors generated by a specific Elk interface code version (https://github.com/AlynJ/Elk_interface-TRIQS). The interface can perform charge-self consistent DFT+DMFT calculations using the aforementioned Elk code version, including spin orbit-coupling. Hence, this is the first open source interfaced DFT code to triqs with FCSC support. The commit includes detailed documentation and tutorials on how to use this interface. Moreover, further new post-processing routines are added for Fermi surface plots and spectral functions (A(w)) from the elk inputs. The interface was tested by A. James and A. Hampel. However, this is the first iteration of the interface and should be used with care. Please report all bugs. List of changes: --------------- - sumk.py: added cacluation of charge density correction for elk (dm_type='elk'). - sumk_dft_tools.py: added new post-processing functions to calculate the Fermi surface and A(w) from the Elk inputs. - documentation and tutorial files amended for this interface. - added python tests for the Elk converter. 2020-10-09 14:35:28 +02:00			`Developers: M.
