            > Dear Wien2K users,<br>
            > I am running a calculation for a Bi-containing compound
            with a <br>
            > tetragonal structure type. I used LDA with mBJ, and
            then, due to the <br>
            > heavy Bi atom, I did the SOC calculation. The
            calculated band gap <br>
            > energy with SOC is smaller than without SOC. I checked
            the literature, <br>
            > and the band gap decrease is common for SOC
            calculation. However, if I <br>
            > use PBE-GGA with mBJ (instead of LDA with mBJ), the
            band gap energy <br>
            > with SOC is greater than without SOC, which is contrary
            to the <br>
            > literature.<br>
            ><br>
            >  Is it possible that I get a band gap decrease with LDA
            while I get a <br>
            > band gap increase with PBE-GGA when the SOC effect is
            taken into <br>
            > consideration?<br>
