There have been a few papers on CeO2 with cp2k published:
Hahn, K.R., Iannuzzi, M., Seitsonen, A.P. and Hutter, J., 2013. Coverage 
effect of the CO2 adsorption mechanisms on CeO2 (111) by first principles 
analysis. The Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 117(4), pp.1701-1711.

Baumann, N., Lan, J. and Iannuzzi, M., 2021. CO2 adsorption on the pristine 
and reduced CeO2 (111) surface: Geometries and vibrational spectra by first 
principles simulations. The Journal of Chemical Physics, 154(9), p.094702.

they might include details of the computational set up used. Fully oxidised 
CeO2 is a wide band insulator so there should be no real problems with 
electronic convergence if cell etc are correct...
