Iurii , Thanks again. I am trying with determine_num_pert_only = .true.
Running  pw.x I got the error
“Too many atoms. The dimensions of Hubbard_V must be increased”
en el archivo.

Browsing in the source files I see that I can solve it increasing the parameter 
natx in the file
/home/software/qe-6.8/Modules/parameters.f90
  INTEGER, PARAMETER :: natx = 50
Is that all I need? I have requested that to the cluster admin, as was unable 
to use the compilers, so I shall wait.

I should have written 26 instead of eight. I was thinking in 2D, Kirk would 
have beaten me like he did with Khan. 🙂

Dear Eduardo,

Actually, the pw.x code generates a virtual 3x3x3 supercell with your real unit
cell inside of it. So in total there are 27 unit cells.

it?

Yes, unfortunately the I and J couple indices will change if you change the
shape of the original real cell. The algorithm can be found in
PW/src/intersite_V.f90.

You can run the HP code by setting determine_num_pert_only = .true. For
DFT+U+V, it will only determine the indices of couples without running heavy
linear-response calculations. So then you can use this new file with the new
indices and add there the U and V values that you previously computed using a
smaller cell.
