Machine-learned Laplacian-level density functional from exact exchange-correlation potentials and energies

Arghadwip Paul, Bikash Kanungo, Sambit Das +1

We present NNLap, a machine-learned Laplacian-level exchange-correlation (XC) functional that augments PBE with a neural-network correction depending on the electron density, its g…

Large-scale pseudopotential density functional theory calculations using orthogonalized enriched finite element basis

Avirup Sircar, Bikash Kanungo, Sambit Das +1

We present an efficient and scalable computational framework for pseudopotential Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) calculations using an enriched finite element (EFE) ba…

Towards exascale fully relativistic pseudopotential density functional theory calculations enabled by mixed-precision computation and compressed-communication using residual based subspace iteration

Nikhil Kodali, Gourab Panigrahi, Nishant Gupta +6

Materials exhibiting noncollinear magnetism or strong spin-orbit-coupling underpin many spintronic and topological applications, but their simulations require complex two-component…

Intrinsic ductility enhancement in Mg alloys elucidated via large-scale ab-initio calculations

Sambit Das, Vikram Gavini

Magnesium is the lightest structural alloy, yet its practical use is limited by its low ductility. Recent studies suggest ductility enhancement in dilute Mg alloys may stem from fa…

Field theoretic atomistics: Learning thermodynamic and variational surrogate to density functional theory

Sambit Das, Bikash Kanungo, Arghadwip Paul +1

The Hohenberg-Kohn (HK) theorem -- the bedrock of density functional theory (DFT) -- establishes a universal map from the external potential to the energy. It also relates the elec…

An Atomic Cluster Expansion Potential for Twisted Multilayer Graphene

Yangshuai Wang, Drake Clark, Sambit Das +5

Twisted multilayer graphene, characterized by its moiré patterns arising from inter-layer rotational misalignment, serves as a rich platform for exploring quantum phenomena. Machin…
