    How to distinguish different phonon branches?

    Thanks for the reply! I also got another reply from other sources. He suggested that the way to determine which frequencies belong to the same branch, a dot product of eigenvectors from neighboring k points can be carried out, the ones with most overlap should be belong to the same branch.
