Dear meep & mpb users 

In MPB user tutorial , when it;s described  calculation of Photonic  band 
structure of triangular lattice,
we see such statement about k-point of irreducible Brillouin zone of a 
triangular lattice.



(set! k-points (list (vector3 0 0 0)          ; Gamma
                     (vector3 0 0.5 0)        ; M
                     (vector3 (/ -3) (/ 3) 0) ; K
                     (vector3 0 0 0)))        ; Gamma
(set! k-points (interpolate 4 k-points))

as far as I know the Brillouin zone of a triangular lattice is look like 
a honeycomb the coordinate of its center and edges  is characterized by points 
like
Gamma=[0 0]  , K=2pi/a*[2/3   0] ,      M=2pi/a*[1/2   1/(sqrt(3)*2)] ....
I would like to know, is there any one who can show me [-1/3 1/3] point on 
Brillouin zone?
I am get completely confused by the point which have shown in MPB user tutorial.

regards,

taimaz,
