Hello:
is it a direct method to calculate the Mulliken overlap populations between atoms with CHGCAR file? And how to do that? Thank you!
Is it possible to calculate the Mulliken overlap populations between atoms?

In short: no.
Mulliken is defined via the overlap integrals of the LCAO approximation as far as I remember.
No overlap integrals here, no Mulliken.
