We investigated the magnetic properties of VRu(001) surface by using the all electron full-potenial linearized augmented planewave (FLAPW) energy band method within the GGA. We consider two different configurations, V and Ru surface layers, respectively. The V atoms in surface layer was calculated to have large magnetic moment of $1.71_{{\mu}_B}$ while the Ru surface layer to have nearly nonmagnetic state. The calculated spin-polarized density of states. spin density contour, and charge density were discussed in relation to the magnetic properties of VRu(001) surface.
