Dear Stefano and Andrew Thank you for your kind replies. Let me ask a more general question which I think about. I want to calculate the band structure of GaAs (FCC structure) in a simple cubic lattice cell with eight atoms (ibrav =1). If I specify the k points in units of 2pi/a (K_POINTS tpi

Is kunit=1 ? Is your nkf and nkf_tot the same as nks nks_tot provided by QE environment? Could you print the nbase for each processor and see if they are the numbers expected? Ye === Ye Luo, Ph.D. Leadership Computing Facility Argonne National Laboratory 2016-10-30 18:59 GMT-05:0

I allocate an array that needs to be calculated among pools using: ALLOCATE(A(3,nbnd,nkf)), where nkf is the number of k points per pool and initialized as: A(:,:,:)=0 Once array A is calculated, I allocate array A_tot as: ALLOCATE(A_tot(3,nbnd,nkf_tot)), where nkf_tot is the total number of k

mp_sum_rt is interfaced with mp_sum for 3d array. When you mp_sum a 3d array, it will be automatically called. USE mp, ONLY : mp_sum_rt is not necessary. If you want to check if mp_sum_rt is implicitly called via interface, you can print something before and after your mp_sum call and also print

Hi Ye, The changes I am making are part of the EPW/QE code and so the parallelization depends on the QE MPI routines. I have no problem using mp_sum for a 2-D array such as energy(iband,ik). I can use mp_sum to add the contributions from various nodes and print the total in agreement with the o

Hi Vahid, segfault in mp_sum doesn't necessarily mean a problem there. Probably you wrote something to output array but not in a valid place before mp_sum. Try to check your allocation of output and the copy make sure they are correct. Ye === Ye Luo, Ph.D. Leadership Computing Fa

Re: [Pw_forum] Cell Relaxation

Dear Ali, First, if you want to relax the cell, you need to use calculation='vc-relax' Then you need to specify the namelist &cell, and also your namelist &ions is empty. As for what to put in those, you can look at the input file description: http://www.quantum-espresso.org/wp-content/uploads

Hi, Suchit, Have you solved the allocate_fft() error for your Windows version QE? Actually, I met the similar problem as you. But, it still seems slightly different. The series version of QE 5.4.0 had been compiled under MinGW 32-bit with gfortran and cc. It runs well. The allocate_fft() error
