Before going on, if you want to use safely espresso you should understand those kind of 
differences (like those between alat or crystal options). You should judge which of the 
two options is needed in your case, mine was only a suggestion of a common mistake in BS 
calculations with pw.x.

Your input files do not have anything strange at first glance, but I don't know if they 
will compute the system you actually have in mind.
You have to be sure that you're using the same atomic configuration, same k-point path, 
but also the same functional and to be converged with respect to the relevant parameters 
(I suppose they have done it in the paper, if they want to publish it).
