Hamiltonian matrix element in k-space
Dear Developers,
May I know, that wannier90 provides the Hamiltonian matrix elements in real space only or it also provides them in k space?
As far as I know, the wannier90 writes the Hamiltonian in the hr.dat
file.
My questions are:
(1) If it does not provide in k-space, what is the method to get it? Where do I get the lattice vectors (R) and k-vectors to do a Fourier transform? The first three columns in the hr.dat
file are the lattice vectors? The first few lines of the hr.dat
file are

The last two columns are the real and imaginary parts of the matrix elements in the Hamiltonian. What are the first three columns?
is it R
?
I will also need k vectors
, for the Fourier transform, where do I get them?
(2) My projected bands from the Wannier90 calculations are well fitted with the DFT bands, still, I have a sizeable imaginary
part in the matrix elements. Is it wrong that the imaginary parts of the matrix elements are not zero?
