Dear Riemann,
Not only is the order of the WFs at the end of the calculation not necessarily the same order as the initial projections, nor are their orbital character. As for the first point, the order of the WFs in the Hamiltonian is the order in which the centres and spreads are reported in the .wout file at the end of the Wannier90 calculation. As for the character of the WFs, you may start with initial projections that are an s- and three p-orbitals, for example, but the final MLWFs might be more like sp3 hybrids. In general you will need to do some further analysis to determine the character of the final MLWFs, e.g., by plotting them.
Best wishes,
Arash

Dear Arash,

Many thanks for Your prompt answer.

By checking the output file of pw2wannier90, I've noticed that the values of numk and iknum are different in my calculation. By putting the key  "nosym = .true. ," in nscf input  file I've fixed it.

Now I have another question.  I've used S and P orbitals  in  the projections section such as below:
Begin Projections
Si19:s;px;py;pz
Si20:s;px;py;pz
End Projections

As is clear, I've put 4 orbital (s,px,py,pz) in each silicon atom for calculation of 8 Wannier function. The calculation finished perfectly and the Interpolated bands was satisfying.

Now I want to use hr_plot data to calculate the On-site and hopping terms. So I want to know the order of H_{mn} stored in hr_plot.dat.

According to my input file, I guess that order of orbitals is as follow:

1-s, 2-px,3-py,4-pz,5-s,6-px,7-py,8pz

Now my question is this: Am I right about the correct order of orbitals? If it's not true what is the correct order of orbitals?

Would You do a favor by providing me with a detailed answer about it if it's possible? It would be a great help and I'll appreciate it.

Sincerely Yours
Riemann

Dear Wannier90 Users and DevelopersY,

I want to do the Wannier calculations for silicene. I've modified the input
files in example-10 for silicene.

 SCF and NSCF part were done completely. But in running Pw2Wannier I've
faced with this error :

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     task #         0
     from pw2wannier90 : error #       256
     Wrong number of k-points
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%.

Since I've  created and put the same k-points in NSCF and .win input files
with kmesh utility such as below:

K-points were created with kmesh utility of Wannier90 package such as below:

./kmesh  8  8  1         ----> for nscf input file
./kmesh  8  8 1    w   ----> for .win input file.

I've confused about this error  and I haven't any idea to fix that.

Would You do a favor by providing me a guidance which where I made mistake?
It would be a great help and I'll appreciate it.

Additionally, input files are attached below for Your consideration.


Sincerely Yours
Riemann

Dear Riemann,
Your nscf and win files look OK in terms of the number of k-points, so as long as you are doing everything in the right sequence then it should be OK. The output file of pw2wannier90 should tell you how many k-points it has from the electronic structure calculation and how many it is expecting from Wannier90 (there will be line that gives the values of numk and iknum) and this might provide a further clue as to what is going on.
Best wishes,
Arash
