Errors in the band structure interpolation

Post by Jinsen » Wed Feb 15, 2017 2:19 am

Hi everyone,

I have tried to plot the band structure of graphene with yambo(version 4.01) and ypp, but there are some errors.
First, I run the QE get the scf and nscf files, then "p2y -N". After that, I run "yambo -i -V RL". In order to remove time reverse symmetry, "ypp -n" and got the FixSymm folder. I enter the FixSymm folder and run "yambo -g n -p p -V par -F GW.in". When I got the o.qp, I run "ypp -s b -V qp -F band.in". However, the report file shows some errors. Here attached the input files and report files. Would you please help me figure it out?

Thank you!

Best regards,
Jinsen

Dear Jinsen,

as you can see at the end of the r_stderr:

Code: Select all

 [ERROR] Ypp cannot interpolate more than 20 bands. Reduce bands range
I can see from your input you are asking for 10 bands only but I suspect your input is broken and the code get confused: e.g. the %BANDS_range namelist is not closed,
and I also think that it is a deprecated variables substituted by %QPkrange.
I suggest to clean up you input, also eliminating not used variables, something like the input attached and see if it works.


Best,

Daniele

Dear Daniele,

It works after use your ypp.in. Thank you so much!
