What is the difference between Monkhorst KPOINTS sampling and Gamma point sampling ?

Shilendra Kumar Sharma @Shilendra_Sharma2

10 October 2016 0 4K Report

When we should use Monkhorst and when Gamma point sampling. Is there any difference in results calculating from both sampling. At what conditions both type of KPOINTS sampling are equal.
