OpenMX does not support calculations with a fixed multiplicity of total spin moment, but supports a way which determines a magnetic state during SCF iteration starting from the initial spin configuration.

For cluster systems, there is no band dispersion, and the energy spectrum is given by the sum of delta functions.

Many papers have already addressed the issue using OpenMX. Please look those papers.

The Hubbard U used in the DFT+U method of OpenMX is an adjustable parameter more or less, and OpenMX does not have a functionality to calculate the Hubbard U based on first-principle methods such as constraint scheme.
