[CP2K-user] [CP2K:15552] What is the difference if MT solver or ANALYTIC solver is used for XY peroidic boundary?

[Dragon Don]

Hi Anton,

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, I really appreciate your help. Actually I have read 
this paper before. And it is quite fit my concerns here. But I still do not 
know their difference (MT and ANALYTIC solver). So I am wondering whether 
the dipole effect can be avoided if the XY peroidic boundary is used, or 
must the solver is change to MT meantime. AS I have tried early, both the 
MT solver and the ANALYTIC solver works normally in the XY peroditic 
boundary. Besides, there is no one to tell what is the good or not good for 
these two slovers when doing the band structure/ frequency analysis job.
At last, I'd like to thank you again for your kind help! 

Don
(I wrote back to you for three times, while the google group just do not 
show them, That's so strange, lol!)
