        if you take the sigma line, (xi,xi,0), when xi=0.75 you are at
        the K point<br>
        if you keep going along (xi,xi,0) until xi=1.0 you get to
        (1,1,0) which is the same as<br>
        X=(0,0,1) because (1,1,-1) is a G vector for the fcc<br>

            <div>Dear nicola,</div>
            <div>    Thank you so much for your reply. But I don't
              understand.</div>
            <div>    According to wikipedia's picture, the only Γ - K -
              X path that I can see is like this</div>
            <div>    <a href="https://pasteboard.co/GA9vm6Q.png"
                _src="https://pasteboard.co/GA9vm6Q.png"
                moz-do-not-send="true">https://pasteboard.co/GA9vm6Q.png</a></div>
            <div>    I can not see any other possibility. Would you
              please show me what is the other possible path for  Γ - K
              - X in a picture? Thank you so much.</div>
            <div>    And I do the phonon dispersion calculation using
              q_in_band_form for matdyn.x, k path labels are default. I
              thought this is standard.</div>
