Description
This PR removes the unused cross-device copy constructor
HamiltPW(const HamiltPW<T_in, Device_in> *hamilt)and cleans up the associated dead code.Background:
This constructor was originally introduced in PR #1502 to facilitate the deep copying and conversion of Hamiltonian objects between CPU and GPU devices. However, following the comprehensive generic
<FPTYPE, Device>refactoring and the introduction of tensor-based memory synchronization in PR #1535, the eigensolvers no longer require direct cross-device casting of theHamiltPWobject. All calls to this constructor have already been removed.Changes:
