Berry Phase--what is the meaning of "*c" for BP term, and should it be zero?

Hi all

I've read and reread papers and documentation, and combed this list (on which similar questions have been asked several times, but not, that I could find, answered).

My question: When doing Berry Phase calculations, my BP term always has non-zero values for the *c term which followed the BP term.

I think (correct or incorrect?) that this should be zero. I don't know how to make it zero, or if non-zero, how to incorporate the values into my BP calculation.

Thanks,
Kim

this term refers to the indeterminacy of the BP term.
