Sharp uniform convergence rate of the supercell approximation of a crystalline defect

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We consider the geometry relaxation of an isolated point defect embedded in a homogeneous crystalline solid, within an atomistic description. We prove a sharp convergence rate for a periodic supercell approximation with respect to uniform convergence of the discrete strains.
