Dear all, on ordering of propagating modes. In the documentation https://kwant-project.org/doc/1/reference/generated/kwant.physics.Propagatin... it says: "modes with negative velocity are ordered from larger to lower momenta" Shouldn't it be: "modes with negative velocity are ordered from lower to larger momenta"? As is mentioned in FAQ (in section "How does Kwant order the propagating modes of a lead?") https://test.kwant-project.org/doc/doc-faq/tutorial/FAQ namely: "Negative velocity modes are ordered by increasing momentum" Best, Tibor
Hi Tibor,
on ordering of propagating modes. In the documentation
https://kwant-project.org/doc/1/reference/generated/kwant.physics.Propagatin...
it says:
"modes with negative velocity are ordered from larger to lower momenta"
Shouldn't it be:
"modes with negative velocity are ordered from lower to larger momenta"?
As is mentioned in FAQ (in section "How does Kwant order the propagating modes of a lead?")
https://test.kwant-project.org/doc/doc-faq/tutorial/FAQ
namely:
"Negative velocity modes are ordered by /increasing/ momentum"
Thanks for the keen eye! I have filed a bug report [1] and a fix [2] for this. Happy Kwanting, Joe [1]: https://gitlab.kwant-project.org/kwant/kwant/issues/149 [2]: https://gitlab.kwant-project.org/kwant/kwant/merge_requests/154
