Dear all,

Does anyonone which are the reasons why you can get imaginary
displacements for phonon eigenmodes? As far as I remember from algebra,
the dynamical matrix is real and symmetric, thus hermitian, and
hermitian matrices have real eigenvectors and eigenvalues. Therefore I
don understand why I get this results. Problems with convergence maybe?

Thanks for your answers,

Ion
