Chris,

I don’t know if there is an implementation within QE (someone else who is more 
knowledgeable can chime in), but I believe you can run basin hopping and minima 
hopping through ASE: https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/ase/ase/optimize.html.

I would be interested to know too if either of these algorithms have been 
implemented in PWscf.

Best,
Steve

Subject: [QE-users] "Basin Hopping" algorithm for pwscf?

Dear all,

I saw "basin hopping" referenced in several presentations about pwscf but I 
cannot find the corresponding implementation - can anyone point me in the right 
direction?

Thanks in advance!
Chris
