Dear S.D. Wang, It depends on what you are computing: molecule or periodic system. For a molecule, as you know, the answer is a 1x1x1 sc with enough vacuum around it. For a periodic system, it depends on the size of the cell in the real space.
Anyway for both cases, the GWW code computes only the GWW eigenvalues at the gamma point. Nevertheless, a 2X2X2 or 3x3x3 or beyond sc should be used for improving the accuracy of the exchange part of the eigenvalues. For more informations, please have a look on your webpage (tutorial part) http://gww.qe-forge.org/index.php?page=tutorial Hope it helps, Joe Quoting shudong wang <sd.wang000 at gmail.com>: > Dear developers: > I confused about the size of supercell in GWW calculations.
