I have difficulties to follow your arguments. In your first email
you have mentioned that you did non spin polarized calculations, and
now you are speaking about ferromagnetic character at M point! <br>
<br>
In addition, I do not understand the following line: "<span>DOS and
band structre showing totally opposite behaviour". <br>
<br>
My feeling remains the same and particularly in the present case.
You are looking at graphene, a 2D system for which the band
dispersion is large. <br>
You must see Van't Hoff singularities in the DOS and you need to
have a dense k-mesh to have a well-converged DOS. <br>
Did you check the convergency of your DOS calculation but using
denser k-meshes? <br>
<br>

<div> The band gap estimated from the DOS is always larger
than the one extracted from the band structure (which is
more accurate). <br>
To estimate the fundamental band gap you should consider
the one deduced from the band structure. <br>
<br>
The difference you observed is certainly due to the
existence of a broad band which has a very low density
near the Fermi energy. As a consequence, you can have
the feeling that you have a gap by looking at the DOS. <br>
<br>
Could you give more details about your calculations ?
Which system ? The value of the band gap from the DOS ?
<br>

<div>Dear Wien2k Users</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am doing non spin polarized calculation. In
this calculation, DOS and Band structure are not
consistent with each other. DOS shows that it has
some band gap but in band structure it shows that
it is metallic. I don't know what is the problem
in this and why DOS and Band structure is
inconsistent with each other.</div>
<div>i expect that DOS is correct but something is
wrong with band structure.<br>
</div>
<div>If any one of you give any suggestion that how
i can solve this problem. I will be very thankful
to you.</div>
