PLUGINS/LOCAL POTENTIAL

PLUGINS/LOCAL_POTENTIAL = .TRUE. | .FALSE.

Description: PLUGINS/LOCAL_POTENTIAL calls the Python plugin for the local potential interface for each SCF step

When PLUGINS/LOCAL_POTENTIAL=.TRUE., VASP calls the local_potential Python function. See here for details on how to setup your Python script such that VASP can recognize it.

The primary use-case of this tag is to add to the local potential and the total energy of a VASP calculation through a Python plugin.

Expected Inputs

The local_potential Python function expects the following inputs,

   def local_potential(constants, additions):

where constants and additions and Python dataclasses.

Mind: Pay attention to common pitfall and the interplay with MYOTHER.

If there are many tag options, making each option a heading may pay off. This way, the table of contents provides a good overview. However, for three options, the list below suffices.

MYTAG=-1: Algorithm name

Deprecated: This functionality is not supported in VASP version > 5.4.4.

A concise description of this algorithm. A long description deserves an overview article.

MYTAG=0: Algorithm name

A concise description of this algorithm. A long description deserves an overview article.

MYTAG=1: Algorithm name

You do not need to use a NB template everywhere, and it can be used anywhere before, after, and in between paragraphs.

Give details about an issue that can arise here and offer some advice. The paragraph started with an indent. Add your references on Template:Cite and cite using a command like this^[1].
