Dear Jacopo, There's nothing out of the box, however the calculation is rather straightforward. If you want to compute the LDOS of a lead at a given energy, compute its modes (via lead.modes), then take the propagating ones and square their sum. Since the lead modes are normalized to carry unit current, this procedure is sufficient. If you only wan the overall DOS, sum the inverse velocities, as returned by the modes. Come to think of it, it would make a lot of sense to implement density of states as a convenience method of propagating modes. I've opened https://gitlab.kwant-project.org/kwant/kwant/-/issues/376 ; anyone interested?
