Dear Andrii,

It is strange that the pw.x codes works fine while you have some issues with hp.x. These two codes use the same routine symonpair.


Which version of QE do you use? Can you share please your input and output files (via Google Drive) so that we can investigate your problem in more detail?


Greetings,

Iurii

Dear Andriii,

As far as I know, the default settings limit DFT + U + V to 50 atoms. However, this should be readily adjusted by changing the natx parameter in the Modules/parameters.f90 (Modules/parameters.f90 · develop · QEF - Quantum Espresso Foundation / q-e · GitLab<https://gitlab.com/QEF/q-e/-/blob/develop/Modules/parameters.f90>) to your system size.

Also, having a look at your input file I do not think that you should Hubbard_U(3) = 1d-10  AND Hubbard_V(3,3,1), since Hubbard_V(3,3,1) already refers to the on-site Hubbard U for atom 3.  To sum up, if you are using DFT + U use Hubbard_U, if you are using DFT + U + V just use the Hubbard_V keyword.

The solutions to both of these problems are well described in the pw.x  input description (pw.x: input description (quantum-espresso.org)<https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/INPUT_PW.html#idm471>, hence I thought you might find it helpful to give it a read. Also, I highly recommend working your way through the examples on the QE github page (q-e/LiCoO2.scf.in at master · QEF/q-e · GitHub<https://github.com/QEF/q-e/blob/master/HP/examples/example10/reference/LiCoO2.scf.in>).

Dear Users,

I'm trying to run a DFT+U+V Hubbard parameters calculation (hp.x) on a
system with 80 atoms.

SCF run is fine, file hp.x run gives:

Index of the second rotated atom=           0
      Error in routine symonpair (1):
      Out of bounds

How can the second rotated atom be zero?

My input is based on the YouTube "Tutorial on DFT+U+V using Quantum
ESPRESSO (v6.7)".
The +U+V settings are:
                    lda_plus_u = .true.
               lda_plus_u_kind = 2
                  Hubbard_U(3) = 1d-10
              Hubbard_V(1,1,1) = 1d-10
              Hubbard_V(2,2,1) = 1d-10
              Hubbard_V(3,3,1) = 1d-10
              Hubbard_V(4,4,1) = 1d-10
              ...
              Hubbard_V(80,80,1) = 1d-10

Is it a bug, or is it just the question of some parameter tweaking?
I've already increased natx to 150.

Thank you.
