[Pw_forum] very large value 'U' obtained for 'GaAs' by linear response method

Dear Prof. Matteo,
i am using Ga, pseudo with 3d as a valence, Hubbard_l=2 is set for 'Ga'. If
it should change how much value i have to set it?

Dear sir i am totally struck by zero matrix element in ch0^-1 - chi^-1, so
always it gifted me ZERO value where as ch0 and chi matrix are NON ZERO
with same element value.
CHI_0 Matrix
   -0.0002  -0.0002   0.0005
  -0.0002  -0.0002   0.0005
   0.0005   0.0005  -0.0010
   CHI Matrix
   -0.0002  -0.0002   0.0005
  -0.0002  -0.0002   0.0005
   0.0005   0.0005  -0.0010

  CHI0^-1 - CHI^-1 Matrix

    0.0000    0.0000
    0.0000    0.0000
  type:            1  U0 =   0.000000000000000E+000
This above is for all the  2 atoms supercell combination when we take the
ZB structure with 2 atoms: (1) when both atoms are 'Ga'
(2) when both atoms are 'Ga1' and 'Ga' (3) when both atoms are different
'Ga' and 'As'.

All above three conditions are tested under one atom(Ga1 or Ga) is
perturbed.
Please Sir give me some ray of hope so that i can get rid of this situation.
