KPOINTS_WAN is an optional input file to obtain eigenstates and eigenenergies at the specified k points from Wannier functions. The format is the same as for the KPOINTS file.

Important: The VASP calculation must include the construction of Wannier functions, e.g., using LSCDM or LWANNIER90.

KPOINTS_WAN is read automatically when present. To avoid this, set LKPOINTS_WAN=.FALSE. in the INCAR file. VASP writes corresponding fields in the vaspout.h5 file and vasprun.xml file indicated by the keyword kpoints_wan.

Mind: Available as of VASP 6.3.0.
