[QE-developers] Space group does not produce correct Wyckoff positions

[박민규]

Dear Andrea,

I see. That’s why QE produces correct number of positions for each Wyckoff position.
Thank you for your comment.

Is this written somewhere in the document?
I think someone may suffer same confusion as me.

I do not think there is an error. Please note that for centered
lattices the Bilbao Crystallographic Server as also the ITA tables give
the crystal coordinates in the basis of the primitive vectors of the
conventional unit cell, while QE writes on output the crystal
coordinates in the basis of the primitive vectors of the centered cell.

HTH,

Andrea

Dear all,

I found some Wyckoff positions are not correctly produced for space
group I4/mmm (139) (ibrav=7).
For example, if I assign 2b and 4d Wyckoff positions, QE 6.6 produces
(0,1/2,1/2) for 2b and (1/2,3/4,1/4), (1/2,1/4,3/4) for 4d.

QE 6.6 with I4/mmm (139)
2b (0,1/2,1/2)
4d (1/2,3/4,1/4)
    (1/2,1/4,3/4)

However as you can find from Bilbao Crystallographic Server<
https://www.cryst.ehu.es/cgi-bin/cryst/programs/nph-wp-list>, for
I4/mmm (0,1/2,1/2) corresponds to 4c and (1/2,3/4,1/4), (1/2,1/4,3/4)
correspond to 16n. According to Bilbao, 2b should be (0,0,1/2) and 4d
should be (0,1/2,1/4) and (1/2,0,1/4).

Bilbao Crystallographic Server I4/mmm (139)
(0,1/2,1/2)      4c
(1/2,3/4,1/4) 16n
(1/2,1/4,3/4)

Bilbao
2b  (0,0,1/2)
4d  (0,1/2,1/4)
     (1/2,0,1/4)

So I guess there are some internal problems in the code or Bilbao is
incorrect.
