Errors with yambo_sc

[jasonhan0710]

Dear all,

I am using yambo_sc to calculate the self-consistency GW. However, the self-consistency stopped before the sc porcess.

Here I post the input file:

and it stopped at the following step

Would you please help me check which input variables is not correct? Here attached the input files for both QE and Yambo. Thank you!

Dear Jason

the self-consistent part is an experimental part of Yambo,
at present we did not write any tutorial on this part and
we do not provide assistance on this part.

In you case you have to specify the self-consistent model you want,
for example for COHSEX you have to add to your input

Code: Select all

yambo_sc -v h+coh+sex -X s -s

I advise you also to reduce the number bands in the self-consistency
and use a smaller the block size

Code: Select all

NGsBlkXs= 3000                mRy    # [Xs] Response block size

if it works at the end of the run you can do a GoWo on top of COHSEX.

good luck

Best
Claudio
