abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">The Teter, Payne, and Allan &quot;preconditioning&quot; function plays a significant
role in planewave DFT calculations. This function is often called the TPA preconditioner.
We present a detailed study of this &quot;preconditioning&quot; function. We develop a
general formula that can readily generate a class of &quot;preconditioning&quot; functions. These
functions have higher order approximation accuracy and fulfill the two essential &quot;preconditioning&quot;
purposes as required in planewave DFT calculations. Our general class
of functions are expected to have applications in other areas.</p>},
