Dear Prof. Blaha, dear All,
Regarding "grep THETA case.outsymso". One gets two angles THETA and
PHI.
Are the real (a1,a2,a3) and reciprocal (b1,b2,b3) vectors printed out
explicitly somewhere in Cartesian coordinates (just for sanity checks)?
I understand that for hexagonal lattice a1 is oriented 30deg away from
the x axis. It seems that PHI angle is then given with respect the x
axis.
Best,
Lukasz

Dear WIEN2k users,
Unfortunately since WIEN2k_23.1 a severe bug was introduced in
SRC_symmetso/angle.f
It may lead to a wrong symmetry reduction due to spin-orbit
interactions.
The bug is active in magnetic (spinpolarized) spin-orbit calculations
at least for B and F cubic and orthorhombic CXY, CXZ and CYZ
lattices, where the magnetization direction was multiplied by the
primitive Bravais matrix and thus e.g the (0 0 1) direction was moved
into (1 1 1) or (1 1 0), resulting into wrong Euler angles theta and
phi and thus to wrong symmetry.
It should NOT be active for P, H and R lattices.
If you have done SO calculations with WIEN2k_23 or 24, please check
grep THETA case.outsymso
and check if theta (the angle between M and z) and phi agree with
expectations according to the selected M-direction in case.inso.
Please replace the attached angle.f subroutine in SRC_symmetso and
recompile.
Best regards
Peter Blaha
PS: Special thanks to Stefaan, who reported the problem of SO
calculations.

initso_lapw should reduce the symmetry operations to 16, not 12 (if
M= 0 0 1). It makes cubic --> tetragonal
Unfortunately, a quick test shows that in *outputsymso theta and
phi is wrong and thus it reduces to a wrong symmetry.
I'll debug it as quick as possible.

Dear WIEN2k community,
I am struggling with lapwdm, for calculating the orbital magnetic
moment. This feature worked fine many years ago, but I am not able to
get it working right now.
Tests are done with WIEN2k 23.2, not with the current version (not
available on the resources to which I currently have access). But I
guess this does not matter for this test.
bcc Fe is the test case:
blebleble s-o calc. M|| 0.00 0.00

0 NUMBER OF SYMMETRY OPERATIONS
Initialization:
init_lapw -prec 1 -rkmax 7.5 -numk 8000
init_so_lapw
In the latter step, all defaults were accepted and symmetso was
allowed to run. It reduces the number of symmetry operations from 48
to 12. There are several ‘warnings’ in case.outsymso, but I guess
these are normal and indicate the 36 symmetry operations that are
eliminated.
The case is run by:
runsp -so -cc 0.00001
and converges in 12 iterations, without problems.
I then prepare the following case.indmc file:
-12. Emin cutoff energy
1 number of atoms for which density matrix is
calculated
1 4 0 1 2 3 index of 1st atom, number of L's, L1
1 3 r-index, (l,s)index
This should give the orbital contribution to the orbital moment for
the s, p, d and f orbitals of the iron atom (not all of them relevant
for this element and this property, I know).
When running lapwdm, there is an error message in stdout :
x lapwdm -c -so -up
Error: check case.outputdmup, symmetry might be wrong
The output file case.scfdmup has only a single line:
Spin-polarized + s-o calculation, M|| 0.000 0.000 1.000
And the output file case.outputdmup terminates with an extra line
(which is presumably an error message) after heaving dealt with the
second symmetry operation:
2 Euler angles: a,b,c: 270.0 90.0 0.0
# of operation, phase, det:
2 4.71238896548353 0.000000000000000E+000
symm. operation 2 so-det= 0.000000000000000E+000
Did I overlook something, has something changed to the procedure (I
can’t find any hint for this in the usersguide) or is this feature
broken?
Thanks,
Stefaan
