Thankyou Lorenzo Paulatto for your comments

Here I am giving more clarifications and doubts

commnet2: In spin polarized calculation it was asking
starting_magnitization value. So can please tell me how to choose that
value for CeO2 ??




comment1: System was CeO2(111) face plane

comment3: Yes. I saw so many posts saying about NORM conserving psudo
potential. So either I will change PPs or increase ecutwfc

comment4: I will do search regarding this



Thank you once again. Your comments valuable to me


Regards
Phanikumar
