Like the subject says, is there a way to implement Periodic Boundary Conditions, at least in 1D? Or is it a feature yet to come?
Just wondering.

Hi chrisapo,

the boundary conditions in our code depend on the discrete variable representation  (Inputs
Code: [Select]
DVR_X,DVR_Y,DVR_Z) that you select in the
Code: [Select]
MCTDHX.inp .

The most efficient choice to have periodic boundary conditions is to set these inputs to "4", i.e.,
Code: [Select]
DVR_X=4
DVR_Y=4
DVR_Z=4

This is actually the default setting.

Hope that helps,
Axel
