Dear all,
Hello!
I tried to get electron-phonon coupling constant for metallic systems with inversion symmetry.
Before doing epw calculations, I checked that all MLWFs have small spreads within 3 A.
Although I obtained well localized hamiltonian and dipole in Wannier basis, dynamical matrix in Wannier basis shows odd behaviors as below.

I think that this wrong behavior of dynamical matrix may give rise to negative frequency and phonon linewidth in epw which doesn't occur in DFPT calculations with coarse k and q meshes.
Is there anyone who encounters same problem or knows how to solve this problem?
Best regards,

Something wrong in decay.dynmat
