Category talk:Electronic minimization

• The page Algorithms used in VASP to calculate the electronic groundstate describes the class of minimizers based on a combination of the SCF cycle and density mixing. This, however, is not the only class of methods available (there's the direct minimizers as well).

• Several "Theory" pages mentioned here are off-topic:
  • Move "PAW method" elsewhere (e.g. to the "Theoretical Background section")
  • Move "k-point integration" elsewhere
  • Move "Wrap-around errors" elsewhere

• All "How to" pages mentioned here are off-topic (should be moved elsewhere)

• Subcategory "density of states" is off-topic

• Several (probably all) pages on electronic minimizers need to be reworked. In some of them references like "in the previous section" are used, which are meaningless in a wiki environment. Examples: Efficient single band eigenvalue-minimization and Conjugate gradient optimization.
