[CP2K:2546] Initial guess of the density matrix

[Jörg Saßmannshausen]

Dear Simone,

I am currently tackling a similar problem but with a different TM. My approach 
to the problem is to run a broken symmetry single point calculation. So I fix 
the spin of each TM (say up and down), write out the individual MOs and then 
calculate the overall molecule by assembling the individual MOs. 
However, I am not using cp2k for that. I too would be interested if that can 
be done with cp2k (broken symmetry).

Not a solution, but maybe a direction where to go?

Regards

J�rg
