A multigrid method for real-space solution of the Kohr-Sham equations is presented. By using this multiscale approach, the problem of critical slowing down typical of iterative real-space solvers is overcome. The method scales linearly in computer time with the number of electrons if the orbitals are localized. Here, we describe details of our multigrid method, present preliminary many-electron numerical results illustrating the efficiency of the solver, and discuss its strengths and limitations. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
