Keyword descriptions

SECTION_PARAMETERS: logical = F

Lone keyword: T

Usage: &ENERGY_CORRECTION T

Controls the activation of the energy_correction [Edit on GitHub]

ADMM: logical = F

Lone keyword: T

Usage: ADMM

Decide whether to perform ADMM in the exact exchange calc. for DC-DFT. The ADMM XC correction is governed by the AUXILIARY_DENSITY_MATRIX_METHOD section in &DFT. In most cases, the Hartree-Fock exchange is not too expensive and there is no need for ADMM, ADMM can however provide significant speedup and memory savings in case of diffuse basis sets.
