How to restart from the calculations of solving Eliashberg

Post by hellolori »

Dear all,

Recently, I ran into a problem that the calculations crashed in the process of solving anisotropic Eliashberg equations (conv_thr_iaxis = 1.0d-4):

Code: Select all

 
     iter =      1   relerr =     2.4506478586E+00   abserr =     1.8665397950E-03   Znormi(1) =     2.2831093634E+00   Deltai(1) =     2.2093421381E-03
     iter =      2   relerr =     9.3553386347E-02   abserr =     7.2508889345E-05   Znormi(1) =     2.2678266877E+00   Deltai(1) =     2.5252278821E-03
     iter =      3   relerr =     8.6797838393E-02   abserr =     7.2598717285E-05   Znormi(1) =     2.2488812327E+00   Deltai(1) =     2.8596203692E-03
     iter =      4   relerr =     5.6733236298E-02   abserr =     5.0270428965E-05   Znormi(1) =     2.2387233527E+00   Deltai(1) =     3.0308264309E-03
     iter =      5   relerr =     5.8652682987E-02   abserr =     5.5208887525E-05   Znormi(1) =     2.2283793011E+00   Deltai(1) =     3.2004540517E-03
     iter =      6   relerr =     5.9208830251E-02   abserr =     5.9232247802E-05   Znormi(1) =     2.2173695216E+00   Deltai(1) =     3.3729248407E-03
     iter =      7   relerr =     3.0891871779E-02   abserr =     3.1887300572E-05   Znormi(1) =     2.2132471389E+00   Deltai(1) =     3.4479379561E-03
     iter =      8   relerr =     1.8765431258E-02   abserr =     1.9013801052E-05   Znormi(1) =     2.2156315254E+00   Deltai(1) =     3.4026869489E-03
     iter =      9   relerr =     5.7782452356E-04   abserr =     5.8521220320E-07   Znormi(1) =     2.2159359256E+00   Deltai(1) =     3.3991815748E-03

I would like to know is it possible to restart from the last step of the iteration as shown above in EPW? How to do that?

Bests!

Hi,

The code doesn't have the option to restart from a previous iteration at a given temperature.

However, you can start from the files from your last temperature by setting "imag_read=.true." or you can provide a guess for "gap_edge" by setting it equal to Deltai(1) from iter = 7 in your case.

Best,
