Restarting a job using the WAVECAR file
Dear VASP users,
I'm used to restarting my LDA+U calculations using the WAVECAR file (ISTART = 1 ; ICHARG = 0).
When restarting a calculation, VASP uses the same initial onsite density matrices as the previous run. Does VASP keep the onsite density matrices only during the first electronic step? If yes, I would like to know whether it is possible to keep the density matrices during more than one electronic step.
Thank you for your answers.
Regards.
