Dear professor Marzari and Changpeng,

Thanks for the valuable information.

I will have a look at these options.

Regards

Yes, it’s implemented in matdyn, as the Invariance conditions are made on real-space force constants. For q2r, there is a related tag “write_lr” due to this implementation, to deal with the subtlety of long-range interactions in polar solids.

One can find an example input in QE test suite for 2D phonon calculations with those corrections:

Best,

Thanks - thhis is the paper:

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41524-022-00920-6

and in the matdyn
(https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/INPUT_MATDYN.html) this is the
option 'all'.

Not sure about q2r - should be there as well, but I do not see it - but
maybe I'm missing something?

Dear all,

There have been several papers discussing the use of the so-called
Born-Huang and Huang invariance conditions to soothe the possible
negative frequencies that may arise in the long wavelength limit (q->0,
near the G point) in the phonon dispersion of 2D and 1D material.

Is there a specific flag in the ph.x input file that needs to be turned
on to incorporate such corrections?
