At gamma point frequencies, I did not get any imaginary frequencies in asr.out file, where as in complete phonon dispersion I got imaginary frequencies and sudden shifts in high symmetry directions. I am bit confused and croos check my i/p. Below I attached the i/p and o/p of calculations</div>

How to include LO-TO splitting in Complete phonon dispersion???? I am doing Insulator to metal transition, and metal did not contains LO-TO splitting. So, I check LO-TO changes at transition pressure and the same I want to compare with ambient pressure . </div>
