Hello professor Akai

Please, for the treatment of the 4f-states in the calculations of the system formed by rare-earth and transition metal elements(TbNi4Co) , is it possible to get the code akai with self-interaction correction, could you send me this version of code Akai-kkr-LDA-SIC

with best regards

As a default, if l_max=2 is specified in an input for rare-earth elements, the calculation will be performed in "open core" mode for the f states. In this case, SIC is automatically applied to the f states (also as a default). This is the most stable way at the moment. Although we also have developed the LDA-SIC version (namely SIC applied also to valence states), it is not still public. This version may be used only under collaborations or for the studies that are approved by us: this is because the code is not stable enough and often needs a lot of care to be taken.
