Hubbard-corrected density-functional theory (DFT+U) is widely employed to predict the physical properties of correlated materials; however, reliable predictions can be hindered by presence metastable solutions in DFT+U calculations. This issue stems from orbital physics inherent DFT+U. To address this, we propose a method circumvent states applying random orbital-dependent local perturbation localized orbitals. lifts degeneracy within corrective functional DFT+U, ensuring that system...
Model quantum Hall states including Laughlin, Moore-Read and Read-Rezayi are generalized into appropriate anisotropic form. The exact zero-energy eigenstates of corresponding two- or multi-body Hamiltonians, explicitly illustrate the existence geometric degrees in fractional effect. These model can provide a good description system with interactions. Some numeric results these also presented.
Spin-orbit-torque (SOT)-driven perpendicular magnetization switching has attracted great attention for designing energy-efficient, high-density, and thermal-stable storage devices. As field-free deterministic of is not allowed in conventional heavy metals or topological insulators where spin polarization limited to the in-plane direction, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) emerge as current platforms due their low-crystal symmetries. However, present studies using TMDs are restricted...
We investigated the ground-state wave function and free expansion of a trapped dipolar condensate. find that interaction may induce both biconcave dumbbell density profiles in pancake- cigar-shaped traps, respectively. In parameter plane strengths, oscillating profile harmonically condensate occurs only when parameters fall into certain isolated areas. The relation between positions these areas trap geometry is explored. When box potential used to confine condensate, spatial oscillation...

Twenty-one incorporation for hydrogen, i.e., along pathway from its first nearest-neighboring oxygen octahedral interstitial site, considered.
