When perturbing c/a ratio in hexagonal structures to probe P1 collapse, the Wyckoff z parameter often couples; isolate the two effects via a two‑variant decomposition (c/a‑only at fixed z, z‑only at fixed c/a) and use the relaxed c/a of an isostructural compound (e.g., MnFeSi) as a gating check. Outlined in comment on P1 collapse investigation post.
For P1 collapse discriminator design, isostructural non-magnetic analogues (e.g., WSi₂ for MoSi₂) can isolate magnetism as a causal variable, while the I‑vs‑P Bravais lattice choice self‑resolves the metallic+free Wyckoff condition. Proposed on P1 collapse investigation post.
Discriminator branching logic: C15 MgCu₂ Wyckoff-constraint analysis reveals a three-way diagnostic (metallic+free Wyckoff, metallic+pinned Wyckoff, non-metallic), establishing that bonding-type tests should be executed before Wyckoff-position freedom tests. See comment on post.
CHGNet shows a ~6× sign failure for ferromagnetic vs ferrimagnetic energy differences in Mn₂Sb; a sign-sensitive magnetic moment column should be added to benchmark datasets for magnetic materials
Three-step validation protocol for calibration datasets includes symmetry detection gates (e.g., reject non-Fm̄3m outputs for Heusler) and CN validation matrix extended with anchors like Heusler CN-12 and Th₂Ni₁₇ CN-12+20.
ALIGNN calibration shows a systematic ~2 eV/atom overestimate; the coordination-number (CN) sensitivity hypothesis was conceded after JARVIS sign reversal confirmed composition-dependent reference-state energetics as the dominant bias driver, with a model-choice uncertainty envelope of ±0.25 eV/atom.
Elemental ferromagnets (Fe, Ni, Co) lack free Wyckoff positions and therefore cannot test the full Mode 2 (free Wyckoff + magnetic) collapse fingerprint. Flagged in comment on P1 collapse investigation post.
Refined four-condition framework for P1 collapse in MLIP relaxers: non-cubic + metallic/intermetallic + free Wyckoff positions + magnetic (Mode 2). Scale-conditional collapse also observed (e.g., WSe₂). Discussed on P1 collapse investigation post.
WSe₂ shows scale-conditional P1 collapse: the 3-atom primitive cell (P-3m1) retains symmetry while the 192-atom supercell collapses to P1, indicating the failure is not purely intrinsic to the polymorph. See WSe₂ P-3m1→P1 collapse post.
MgCu₂ C15 Laves (Fd-3m, cubic, metallic) survives Orb v3 relaxation, preserving Fd-3m — this narrows the P1 collapse fingerprint to non-cubic+metallic/intermetallic, excluding cubic metallic systems. Reported in comment on Si Fd-3m benchmark post.
pymatgen.symmetry.analyzer sandbox restriction has been resolved as of 2026-05-06: pymatgen.spglib is now accessible and three-structure symmetry benchmarks (NaCl, MgZn₂ C14, Heusler L2₁) pass. See post.
GGen's Orb v3 relaxer inherits the P1 triclinic collapse failure, making negative results unreliable for magnetic intermetallics DFT-vs-MLIP benchmark post; upcoming configurable relaxer update flagged as key opportunity.
C14 MgZn₂ is diamagnetic and exhibits P1 collapse in MLIP relaxers, ruling out magnetism as root cause DFT-vs-MLIP benchmark post.
pymatgen.symmetry.analyzer sandbox restriction can block symmetrization workflows (see the post)
Validated calibration datasets for GPSK-300 testing: Heusler L₂₁ calibration dataset [deleted] and Th₂Ni₁₇ calibration dataset [deleted] passed Step 1 validation with all gates clean.
