Dear all, After optimised a molecule I tried to calculate the band structure but pw crashes and I can't figure out why. The optimisation step should be fine(here it converge immediately since I rerun my previous calculation): BFGS Geometry Optimization bfgs converged in 1 scf cy

Dear Nicola, Many thanks for the prompt reply. > first question - would mp work? This we haven't tried. Since mv and mp give very similar numerical results for a given smearing width I guess I thought I should try something a bit different, i.e. gauss. > In terms of "structure" of the smearing

Dear PWSCF community, While we are on the subject of convergence, I would like to inquire about something that we have consistently been observing in a very large number of the systems we have studied (examples being metal atoms on g-Al2O3, CeO2 surfaces etc). While gaussian smearing consistently

Hi Hande, first question - would mp work? In terms of "structure" of the smearing function, gaussian is the smoothest, then mv, then mp. So if there were an intrinsic problem with states at the fermi energy, it should be even more apparent in mp . As a general comment, the role of smearing is
