Hello Mariem,

> Is it necessary to add empty spheres in the system?
I think there are no clear criteria of whether empty spheres are needed or not.
For example, Svane and Antoncik (1987) calculated the band structure of SnO2 (rutile structure) without ES, although they recognized the possible errors arising from the absense of ES.
I think it is not necessary to add ES, if the result is consistent with full-potential calculations.

> And what is physically the role of ES added in the system?
Please refer Keller (1971), which is the first paper that introduces ES, as far as I know.

> I’m wondering if U and J interaction is included in KKR code.
As far as I know, AkaiKKR does not support U and J.
