Also, epsilon.x cannot use symmetry-reduced grids, which would be a huge wast of time with hybrids, but you can use open_grid.x after the pw.x calculation too obtain the full grid and work around this problem. cheers On 4/8/20 6:38 PM, Paolo Giannozzi wrote: I think epsilon.x assumes that the

I think epsilon.x assumes that the dipole element of x can be computed using [H,x]=p\hbar/m. The exchange potential is nonlocal, so its commutator with x will yield an additional term that is not accounted for. Not sure how important it is in practice. Do I remember correctly that epsilon.x also

Dear Molte your system could be symmetric under operations made by a rotation + the time reversal operation, in fact these are  the operations that the no_t_rev option disables, not the time reversal per se. does  the results  with and without t_rev compare correctly ? best regards Pietro
