LNOAUGXC = .TRUE. | .FALSE.
Default: LNOAUGXC = .FALSE.
Description: LNOAUGXC specifies if the METAGGA exchange-correlation functionals are evaluated with a density that is augmented or not.
The Kohn-Sham kinetic-energy density should in principle be larger than the von Weizsäcker kinetic-energy density . However, this may not be always the case in particular within the PAW spheres when the pseudo density is augmented with the compensation charge. If LNOAUGXC=.TRUE. in INCAR, then the pseudo density is not augmented, which should alleviate the breaking of the condition .
Not having satisfied can make the calculations unstable, in particular with the functionals of the TPSS family.
