Can't add the external corrections with soc effect

Dear developers,

I calculated the band structure with G0W0 method using yambo, when I made it without soc effect, I added the "GfnQPdb = E < gw/ndb.QP" into input after a long-time gw calculation and everything goes well. I got two band structures with DFT and G0W0. But when I added soc effect into the calculation, I repeated the same steps, the following problems appeared,
1) the external corrections of gw can't be added.
2) the DFT band structure in output can't be interpolated with ypp, the ypp error message is as following,

I hope you can offer some suggestions. Thank you

Dear Tianshu,
can you please post the input file you use for the interpolation and the report file of your GW calculation.
We will have a look.

Best,

Daniele

Dear Daniele,

Thank you for responding so fast.
The input of the interpolation for band structure with ypp is as following,
#
electrons # [R] Electrons (and holes)
bnds # [R] Bands
cooIn= "rlu" # Points coordinates (in) cc/rlu/iku/alat
BANDS_steps=20 # Number of divisions
% INTERPGrid
-1 |-1 |-1 | # Interpolation BZ Grid
%
ShellFac= 20.00000 # The bigger it is a higher number of shells is used
%QPkrange # generalized Kpoint/Band indices
1| 16| 145| 160|
%
%BKpts # K points of the bands circuit
0.50000 |0.00000 |0.50000 |
0.00000 |0.00000 |0.00000 |
0.00000 |0.00000 |0.00000 |
0.50000 |0.25000 |0.75000 |
0.50000 |0.25000 |0.75000 |
0.00000 |0.00000 |0.00000 |
0.00000 |0.00000 |0.00000 |
0.50000 |0.50000 |0.50000 |

The report file of GW with soc effect is attached, Thank you for your help

Dear Thianshu,

can you try to change your path in:

%BKpts # K points of the bands circuit
0.50000 |0.00000 |0.50000 |
0.00000 |0.00000 |0.00000 |
0.50000 |0.25000 |0.75000 |
0.00000 |0.00000 |0.00000 |
0.50000 |0.50000 |0.50000 |
%
This is the right syntax.
Please note the "%" at the end of the namelist.

If it does not work, please report and we will try to reproduce the problem.

Best,

Daniele

Dear Daniele,

I retried ypp as your solution, but the same mistake occurs.
As for the problem that the external correction can't be added in gw with soc effect (I mentioned it before), could you offer some suggestions to me? Thank you for your help.

Dear Thiansu,
yes it should be possible.
Indeed we have found there is a bug in ypp when using SOC:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1370

In the meanwhile we solve the problem you can use the Wannier90 interface where it is now possible to obtain QP ban structure.
You can have a look to this post and the link contained for a tutorial on how to use it.

Best,

Daniele

Dear Thiansu,
we fixed this issue in version 4.2.1
