Theory of composite-band Wannier states and order-N electronic-structure calculations
Takeo Hoshi, Takeo Fujiwara
Abstract
From the order-N electronic-structure formulation, a Hamiltonian is derived, of which lowest eigen state is the generalized or composite-band Wannier state. This Hamiltonian maps the locality of the Wannier state to that of a virtual impurity state and to a perturbation from a bonding orbital. These theories are demonstrated in the diamond-structure solids, where the Wannier states are constructed by a practical order-N algorithm with the Hamiltonian. The results give a prototypical picture of the Wannier states in covalent-bonded systems.
