How to fix corrupted size vs. prev_size error?

Post by rkarkee »

HI developers and users,

I am following the steps in the recent EPW tutorial for transport properties.
I am getting this kind of error (corrupted size vs. prev_size) (Please see the output and input files below. Can you please suggest how may I get rid of such error?


I was suggested to do the following:
The error you are getting is an internal memory chunk error (nor really an error in EPW) indicating that the code tried to write out-of-bound. Can you provide more information such as how many bands are there in the disentanglement window because this error has occurred at the wannierization step? Also, your nscf output. Try a run without bands_skipped and see if it works.

I tried running without bands_skipped but got the same error. Also, I do not know how may I check how many bands in disentanglement window? Can you please suggest to me how may I fix this error?
I am attaching the output files here.

Re: How to fix corrupted size vs. prev_size error?

Hi,

Looking at the input, it seems you provided an initial project of: proj(1)='Te:p' and proj(2)='Hf:d'. Note that this needs to match the number of Wannier functions you give the code (nbndsub). With these projections, 10 Te, and 2 Hf, I believe that gives a total of 80 electrons (40 orbitals), but you only gave it 3 Wannier functions.

You can either increase nbndsub to match the Wannerization (set nbndsub=40), or you can change the projection. One way to test is to simply replace your projection by proj(1)='random' and see if the problem goes away, or you can provide the explicit Wannier centers. I'd suggest check the Wannier90 user guide: https://wannier.org/support/. Note that you could also try auto projection in Wannier90, see: https://docs.epw-code.org/doc/Inputs.ht ... rojections.

That being said, I suspect that in your case it may be very difficult to achieve good Wannierization using only 3 Wannier functions. You may want to play around this and increase it if necessary.

Best!
Xiao
