Hi,
Rencently, i am using wannier90 to interplot the bandstructure of
topolocical insulator (i.e Bi2Se3). However I find it is very hard to
construct the MLWF for this material. i have tried various initial
projections, but the MLWF never seem to be converged. Then i read the
thread about the HgTe topological insulator and read the papers Ivo
suggested. However it is still hard for me to get some clue for
construct the correct input for wannier90. The following is my basic
input for Bi2Se3, can anyone guide me the parameters i need to obtain
the MLWFs for Bi2Se3?

!comment out for first run, uncomment for stand-alone wannier90 runs

Any suggestion will be appreciate.
