Efficient time-dependent Wannier functions for ultrafast dynamics by Cristian M. Le, Hannes Hübener, Ofer Neufeld, Angel Rubio

“…In this work, we present a simple gauge where Wannier states are defined based on the maximally localized functions at the initial time, and are propagated using the time-dependent Bloch states obtained from established first-principles calculations, avoiding the costly Wannierization at each time step. We show that this basis efficiently describes the time-dependent polarization of the laser-driven system through the analysis of the motion of Wannier centers. …”
