Dear Koyendrila,

The electron-phonon calculation with Hubbard U corrections is implemented but not extensively tested, that's why it is disabled. You can enable it, test it, and use it if the tests are ok.

Greetings,
Iurii

Subject: [QE-users] Electron-Phonon calculation with Hubbard-U in QE

Dear Users,

I am attempting to calculate electron-phonon coupling (EPC) within the GGA+U framework using Quantum ESPRESSO (v7.4.1). However, I encounter the following error:

Error in routine phq_readin (1): Electron-phonon with Hubbard U is not supported

Could anyone please advise whether EPC calculations with Hubbard-U are currently supported in QE, or if a specific version or modification (e.g., to pseudopotentials or code) is required?

Warm regards,

Koyendrila
