Hi all,

?I am new to PWSCF and trying to calculate Band structure of YVO4 but facing 
two problems ?

1.)No band is plotted in grpah above 0.0 value. The band structure is very 
large? , as in the? band? Output file? it is calculated like 

?End of band structure calculation

????????? k = 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000???? band energies (ev):

-12.5188 -12.0378 -11.9977 -11.5969 -11.2203 -11.0959 -10.5816 -10.5411
?? -10.4664 -10.4588 -10.0894 -10.0558? -9.6071? -9.5783? -9.0182? -8.9833
???? 0.3058?? 0.6382?? 0.7747?? 0.9726?? 1.3117?? 1.4323?? 1.4740?? 1.5240
means band gap at gamma = 0.3058-(-8.9833)=
 8.2891
?which is very large ??

2) In the output of SCF and Bands , the output file has 4 warnings 

?warning: symmetry operation #? 3 not allowed.?? fractional translation:
?????? 0.0000000 -0.5000000? 0.1164604? in crystal coordinates
???? warning: symmetry operation #? 4 not allowed.?? fractional translation:
?????? 0.0000000? 0.0000000? 0.1164604? in crystal coordinates
???? warning: symmetry operation # 25 not allowed.?? fractional translation:
?????? 0.0000000? 0.0000000? 0.1164604? in crystal coordinates
???? warning: symmetry operation # 26 not allowed.?? fractional translation:
?????? 0.0000000 -0.5000000? 0.1164604? in
 crystal coordinates

for this I have already increase the following quantities? in the? increments
kinetic-energy cutoff???? =????? 40.0000? Ry to 60
???? charge density cutoff???? =???? 250.0000? Ry to 400
But still the warnings are there.

Please help me. I will be very thankful. My Inputs for the calculations are 
following:
