FMM Keyword
Last Update: 12/31/2000

DESCRIPTION
Force the use of the fast multipole method [330,331,332,335,333,334] if possible. Using FMM is recommended for large calculations involving pure DFT functionals.

OPTIONS
LMax=N
Specifies the maximum order multipole. The defaults are 12 for single point calculations and 18 for other calculation types.

Levels=N
Specifies the number of levels to use in the FMM. The default is 8.

Tolerance=N
Specifies the accuracy level as 10-N. The default values for N are 8 for single point energy calculations and 10 for other calculation types.

BoxLen=N
Sets the minimum box length (size) to N/10 Bohrs. By default, N is 30.

AVAILABILITY
Energies, gradients and frequencies for pure DFT methods.
