corrupted size vs. prev_size

[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?

Thank you

Best

Hi,

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.

Best,
Sabya

Hi Sabya,

How do I find how many bands are in the disentanglement window?

Also for some reason in scf.wout it says unrecognized keyword for guiding_centers=.true.
I checked in the Wannier90 and they have used the same. I dont know why it is showing that error there.

Here is nscf.out and scf.wout and scf.win files. (please see the attachments)

Also FYI, I tried without bands_skipped and got the same error.

Hi, your files look fine to me. You can find the number of bands by running a bands calculation and visually checking how many bands fall inside the window. Can you provide me with all your input files so that I can try to reproduce this error?

Best,
Sabya.

Hi Sabya,

Hi,

So, examining you scf file I can see that you have 12 atoms (2Hf and 10 Te atoms). Using d-orbital projection for Hf would result in 5*2=10 Wannier functions and p for Te would result in 3*10=30 Wannier functions. Which means your nbndsub should be 40 and not 3. If you still want lower number of Wannier functions maybe you can try the SCDM method with auto_projections=.true. and scdm_proj=true.

Also, if you choose the earlier option of nbndsub=40, be careful about the disentanglement window as well as the number of bands you are excluding. The total number of bands (not excluded) should be the same or greater than the number of Wannier functions.

Best,
Sabya.

Hi Sabya,

I have disregarded Hf:d orbital and which leaves 30 Wannier functions. So I set nbndsub=30 and bands_skipped='exclude_bands=1-160, 192-200' with 31 bands. Still I am getting the same error. How can I fix this issue?



- Number of bands is ( 31)
- Number of total bands is (200)
- Number of excluded bands is (169)
- Number of wannier functions is ( 30)
- All guiding functions are given

Hi,

Here the key is the following few points:
-The projection that you defined (using proj) and the number of Wannier functions that you provide the code (nbndsub) needs to be matched exactly.
-You need to have enough total number of bands. (your nscf combined with bands_skipped)
-The number of bands within the frozen window (between dis_froz_min and dis_froz_max) can not exceed nbndsub.

As an example, in your case, you have 31 bands with the skipping, and you defined 30 Wannier functions, so regarding point two, this is fine. However, the problem is point one, where now the number of Wannier functions does not match the projection you defined (as Sabya mentioned, that corresponds to 40 bands, not 30 or 3). Note that if you want to increase nbndsub to 40 to match the projections you defined, you also need to make sure to modify the bands excluded and the energy window to satisfy the other points accordingly. If there are problems with the energy window, I believe you would be able to see them in prefix.wout, so if that happens you can tune the window according to the message there.

Alternatively, if you want to keep a small nbndsub, the simplest way around this is to use random projection instead of defining it explicitly, i.e.:
proj(1)='random'
which will allow the code to run, but it will likely give you bad Wannierization. Otherwise, you can try to remove proj tag, but instead set auto_projections and scdm_proj, with a proper combination of scdm_mu and scdm_sigma to use automatic projection scheme. If this is the route you want to take, I would take a look at the Wannier90 tutorials (https://wannier.org/support/) and they also have videos explaining the technique and how to properly choose and test the parameters, e.g.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqDvi6KZkF0.

Please see if these helps.
Best!
