The first two questions have been asked and answered over and over again,
even recently. Some explanations can be found in file
PW/EXX_example/README. Noncollinear magnetization is implemented with
hybrid functional. I don't know about spin-orbit, though.

Dear all.

I am asking the question again as I was unable to find reply to my
previous post.

Can any please me guide me on how to calculate the band structure and
band gap of a material using hybrid calculations? I have a few
questions.

1. How do we perform an NSCF calculation in hybrid scheme (as far as I
know, It is NOT implemented in QE yet)

2. If NSCF is not done in hybrid scheme, how do we represent the
k-path for band structure and how the band structure is evaluated?

3. How do spin-orbit coupling, SOC, is exploited and what are
prerequisites for doing hybrid calculations including SOC?

I shall be highly indebted for help.

Regards
