Yes Occupation Numbers. For each   k-point are first printed all the computed  eigenvalues and then occupation for each KS state.

Dr. Pietro,

Sorry for putting another question in a thread.
When you said fractional occupation, from where are you reading the data?

Are you saying on the basis of data written below
"k = 0.0000 0.0000-1.0000 (  4508 PWs)   bands (ev):"
or the "Occupation numbers."

I apologize in advance if it is a stupid question, I am very new in DFT.

    Hi

     from the results of your calculation you have fractional
    occupations.  Does the literature report this material as
    insulator or as metal ?

     It might be that this fractional occupations are caused by the
    wrong dispersion of the some atomic states. This a very well known
    problem of LDA or PBE with localized d or f atomic states. One way
    to correct this behavior is using LDA+U approach.

    I hope this helps

    regards

    Pietro

    Dear sir,
    As your suggestions I have changed the required things. But I got
    total magnetization zero. but this compound has a magnetic moment
    which is reported in the journal. I have attached the input and
    output file. please help me to do correct calculations.
    Thanking you.

            Hey,

            As per my knowledge, there's no specific pseudopotential
            for spin calculation.

            You need to use commands like nspin and
            starting_magnetization in order to start your spin
            calculation.

            Your choice of XC Functional can affect the results in
            your spin calculation.

            Let me know if it helps.

                Hello QE users,
                Is there any specific Pseudo potential for spin
                polarized calculation?
