Spin splitting with DFT+U method

Dear Prof. Ozaki,
I have a basic question related to the DFT+U band structure. I calculated the band structure of 2D VCl2 with DFT+U. I took the .dat file from the openmx viewer. The bandstructure is a spin splitter means the spin non-degenerate system. In some cases, both spin overlaps mean spin degenerate system.

Is it possible to calculate the spin unpolarized band structure with DFT+U.



Regards,
Vipin

Hi,

Yes, one can perform the DFT+U calculation with the restriction of spin unpolarized state.
Even for such a case, the potential is calculated by Eq. (20) in the paper
