Bonjour Lorenzo, Thank you for your help. The problem appears right at q-point #2 and representation #1.
I have put an archive of the most important files at this address (that hopefully help to reproduce/restart the calculations): https://filesender.renater.fr/?s=download&token=759fb88f-1374-4029-bcb4-73d7c23d7975 <https://filesender.renater.fr/?s=download&token=759fb88f-1374-4029-bcb4-73d7c23d7975> Here is also a more detailed summary of the output file from ph.x.
