Baldereschi mean value points for three-dimensional Bravais lattices.

The Baldereschi point of a crystal is a wavevector in the Brillouin zone at which every smooth periodic function of wavevector lies close to its mean value. Although originally introduced in the context of one-electron methods, mean-value points are ideal for explicitly correlated many-electron methods such as quantum Monte Carlo simulations, which can only use a single Bloch wavevector in the Brillouin zone of a simulation supercell. We have therefore evaluated and tabulated the Baldereschi mean-value points of all fourteen three-dimensional Bravais lattices.
