qimpy.lattice.Kpoints

class Kpoints(*, process_grid, k=None, wk=None, checkpoint_in=(None, ''))

Set of k-points in Brillouin zone.

Parameters:

__init__(*, process_grid, k=None, wk=None, checkpoint_in=(None, ''))

Initialize from list of k-points and weights. Typically, this should be used only by derived classes Kmesh or Kpath.

Parameters:

Return type:

None

Methods

`__init__`	Initialize from list of k-points and weights.
`add_child`	Construct child object self.`attr_name` of type cls.
`add_child_one_of`	Invoke add_child on one of several child options in args.
`save_checkpoint`	Save self and all children in hierarchy to cp_path.

Attributes

`comm`	Communicator for k-point division
`k`	Array of k-points (N x 3)
`wk`	Integration weights for each k (adds to 1)
`division`	Division of k-points across comm
`child_names`	Names of attributes with child objects.
`variant_name`	Version of children having variants (if any)
