Dear all QE users
I am so sorry to ask this question I have been to crystallographic server to
extract the coordinate for my  k-poiint card for space group Fd-3m. the page
is displayed below but I dont know how to extract my k-point from this page
i would be grateful if U can explain how I can get the coordinates for my k
point. Please I would be grateful for your assistance.

The asymmetric unit of ITA is obtained from that used in these tables by
reflectionthrough the plane x,x,z .
The asymmetric unit is obtained from the representation domain of CDML by
the equivalence
[L K W M] ~[L U W X] through the two-fold rotation around the axis Q.

The transformation matrix that relates the primitive (CDML) base with the
conventional-ITA is -*a*+*b*+*c*,* **a*-*b*+*c*,* **a*+*b*-*c*


If you want to identify a *k*-vector you have to introduce: 1. The
reciprocal bases:  primitive (CDML)  conventional dual (ITA)     2.
The *k*-vector:
 kx   ky   kz
