HPRO: Hamiltonian Projection and Reconstruction to atomic Orbitals

PyPI version Python License GitHub

HPRO is a Python package for converting plane-wave DFT calculation results to Hamiltonian matrices in atomic orbital basis. It serves as a bridge between first-principles calculations and tight-binding models or machine learning applications like DeepH.

Features

  • Two conversion methods: Wavefunction projection and real-space reconstruction
  • Multiple DFT interfaces: Quantum ESPRESSO, BerkeleyGW, GPAW, SIESTA
  • MPI parallelization: Scalable calculations on HPC clusters
  • DeepH format output: Direct compatibility with DeepH-pack

Installation

Basic Installation

pip install hpro

Or install from source:

pip install git+https://github.com/Xiaoxun-Gong/HPRO.git

With MPI Support

pip install hpro[mpi]

With Full Parallel Support (MPI + SLEPc)

pip install hpro[slepc]

Note: SLEPc requires PETSc to be installed with MKL Pardiso. See the SLEPc documentation for details.

Quick Start

from HPRO import PW2AOkernel

# Create kernel for real-space reconstruction
kernel = PW2AOkernel(
    aodata_interface='siesta',      # SIESTA orbital files
    aodata_root='./aobasis',
    hrdata_interface='qe-bgw',      # QE + BerkeleyGW
    vscdir='./scf/VSC',
    upfdir='./pseudos',
    ecutwfn=30
)

# Run reconstruction
kernel.run_pw2ao_rs('./output')

For diagonalization and band structure calculation:

from HPRO.aodiag import AODiagKernel

diag = AODiagKernel()
diag.setk(kpts, weights, symbols)
diag.load_deeph_mats('./output')
diag.diag(nbnd=36)
diag.write('./output')
