Dear Hai-Ping,

The wannier90 code which supplies the library routines is strictly a sequential code, so you should do your GW in parallel, and then do the wannier function run as a separate sequentail run. We probably need a test to stop things earlier, as well as clearer documentation.

Best regards,
Don

Dear Don,

I tried to run your GW+MLWFs scheme with $abinit/tests/wannier90/Input/t03.in <http://t03.in> parallelly, but it always failed after GW calculations and gave error information below
" mlwfovlp_qp : ERROR
orthonormality error for quasiparticle wave functions.
spin= 1 k point= 5 ortho_err= 2.6E+02 >1E-6
Action : Be sure input nband>=maxval(bndgw)
"
But i can finish this test by running serially.
I also try to perform this test in another workstation, and it gave me the same behavior. The version i used for tests is 5.7.3, and the compilor is ifort 10.1 with open-mpi, would you please give me some comments and advices for this test ?

Regards,
Hai-Ping

Dear Linhui,

For documentation of the methods, see D. R. Hamann and D.
Vanderbilt, Phys. Rev. B *79*, 045109 (2009). An example with
reasonably good notes in 5.7.2 is tests/wannier90/Input/t03.in
<http://t03.in>. Also see the README, and be sure to go through
the wannier90 tutorial (LDA-based) first.

Thanks for the reply. Is there any document on how to do this? Or maybe an
example input?
