Dear Paolo
Thanks very much for your reply. I read the lectures and I understand that offset shift only points and not change the total energy. Am I wrong?
I calculated energy for a system with two kinds of k_points (2 2 5 0 0 0 and 2 2 5 1 1 1) and I observed different energy for each of them. How to determine the offset for any kpoints? Is there need for convergence?
Thanks in advance
