Dear all,
I have done a GW+BSE calculation under the external electric field and I find the results of the imaginary part of dielectric function obtained by vasp5.3.3 and vasp5.4.4 are different at the outset. Could anybody please give me some suggestions? Thanks a lot!
Here are my BSE results under 0.2 V/Å electric field and my INCAR.

Could you please post the OUTCARs of your calculations?
