LVHAR

LVHAR = [logical]
Default: LVHAR = .FALSE. 

Description (for VASP.5.2.12 and higher): The potential $V_{\text{LOCPOT}}(\mathbf{r})$ (in eV) written to the LOCPOT file is

$V_{\text{LOCPOT}}(\mathbf{r}) = V(\mathbf{r}) + \int \frac{n(\mathbf{r'})}{|\mathbf{r}-\mathbf{r'}|}d\mathbf{r'}+ V_{\text{XC}}(\mathbf{r})$

where $V(\mathbf{r})$ is the ionic potential, the second term is the Hartree potential and $V_{\text{XC}}(\mathbf{r})$ is the exchange-correlation potential.

If LVHAR=.TRUE. is set in the INCAR file, the file LOCPOT is written without the $V_{\text{XC}}(\mathbf{r})$ contribution being added up. Use LVTOT=.TRUE. to include $V_{\text{XC}}(\mathbf{r})$ contribution.

See LOCPOT to find out how to not include the $V_{\text{XC}}(\mathbf{r})$ in older versions of VASP.
