Dear QE users and developers,

I would like to have more information on the meaning of the different sets of G vectors prompted in the output of QE.

First, at the beginning, in the "Parallelization info" section, G vectors are classified into dense, smooth and PW (example below). What do these three values represent? What are the "sticks"?

Parallelization info

     --------------------

sticks: dense smooth PW G-vecs: dense smooth PW

Min 287 287 81 90079 90079 13189

Max 288 288 82 90130 90130 13206

Sum 2587 2587 733 810915 810915 118781

Second, when printing the energies per k-point, a number of G vectors is given as if it were the number of planewaves ( e.g. "k = 0.0833 0.1443 0.0000 (101603 PWs) bands (ev):" ). What does this number actually refer to?

Last question: how all these sets are related to the values of ecutwfc and ecutrho ?

Many thanks!
