BEXX = [real] 

Default: BEXX = 0.25 if LHFCALC=.TRUE. .AND. LRHFCALC=.FALSE.
= 1 if LRHFCALC=.TRUE.
= 0 if LHFCALC=.FALSE.

Description: AEXX specifies the fraction of exact exchange in a Hartree-Fock-type/hybrid-functional calculation.


Mind:
  • For versions of VASP prior to 6.4.0, ALDAX was constrained to be equal to 1.0-AEXX. This constraint is lifted since VASP.6.4.0.
  • For AEXX=1.0, VASP switches off correlation by default (ALDAC=0.0, AGGAC=0.0, and AMGGAC=0.0) and thus runs a full Hartree-Fock calculation.
