Thanks for the response. The paper PRB 83 184420 (2011) is really useful for me to understand the transport properties. The difference between my system and this system described in this paper is only its insulating state and competing magnetic ground state. I will be glad to have few more literatures/information based on similar type of calculations (if available)<br>

<br>Our experience is that you do need the proper ground state in similar cases to what you describe. Check out, e.g. Figure 6 of our paper Phys. Rev B 83, 184420 (2011). You can see the thermopower of the FM solution has nothing to do with that of the AF solution we propose (both solutions being insulating in that case). <br>

May depend on the system, but most likely you really need the correct state.<br>
A nonmagnetic or ferromagnetic calculation might be metallic ....<br>

Dear Prof. Madsen, Prof. Blaha and wien users,<br>
<br>
I intend to calculate the transport properties (thermal and electrical conductivity) of strongly correlated systems having antiferromagnetic (AFM) ground state.<br>
With the experimental parameters having small unit cell, it is not possible to find the AFM ground state so the systems needs to be expanded with supercell. The enlarged cell is<br>
computationally expensive even for scf convergence. So, My questions are,<br>
<br>
(i) Do I need to use the ground state structure file (of large unit cell) and its calculated results for the transport properties calculations or<br>
(ii) I can also use the Nonmagnetic or Ferromagnetic files (small unit cell) for transport property calculations with Boltztrap code.<br>
