Developing new methods for the accurate and efficient calculations of real-time quantum correlation functions is deemed one of the most challenging problems of modern condensed matter theory. Many popular methods, such as centroid molecular…

An exact real time quantum dynamics preaveraged over imaginary time path integral is formulated for general condensed phase equilibrium ensemble. This formulation results in the well-known centroid dynamics approach upon filtering of…

We present a rigorous derivation of classical molecular dynamics (MD) from quantum molecular dynamics (QMD) that applies to the standard Hamiltonians of molecular physics with Coulomb interactions. The derivation is valid away from possible…

We derive the non-adiabatic ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) approach in the phase space of the SU(N) Lie Group. This method, which we refer to as the spin mapping non-adiabatic RPMD (SM-NRPMD), is based on the spin-mapping formalism…

We develop a path-integral dynamics method for water that resembles centroid molecular dynamics (CMD), except that the centroids are averages of curvilinear, rather than cartesian, bead coordinates. The curvilinear coordinates are used…

Centroid molecular dynamics (CMD) incorporates nuclear quantum statistics into the calculation of vibrational spectra. However, when performed in Cartesian coordinates, CMD shows unphysical artifacts in certain vibrational bands, known as…

Path integral-based simulation methodologies play a crucial role for the investigation of nuclear quantum effects by means of computer simulations. However, these techniques are significantly more demanding than corresponding classical…

In Part I [J. Chem. Phys. 138, 084108 (2013)] we derived a quantum transition-state theory by taking the t->0+ (short-time) limit of a new form of quantum flux-side time-correlation function containing a ring-polymer dividing surface. This…

Ring-polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) has become a popular method for describing chemical reactions due to its ability to simultaneously capture tunneling, zero-point energy, anharmonicity and recrossing. Here we highlight that despite its…

The ring-polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) was used to calculate the thermal rate coefficients of the two-channel roaming reaction H + MgH. Both reaction channels, tight and roaming, are explicitly considered. This is a pioneering attempt…

The quantum thermal average plays a central role in describing the thermodynamic properties of a quantum system. Path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) is a prevailing approach for computing quantum thermal averages by approximating the…

This Feature Article presents an overview of the current status of Ring Polymer Molecular Dynamics (RPMD) rate theory. We first analyze the RPMD approach and its connection to quantum transition-state theory. We then focus on its practical…

We apply Thermostatted Ring Polymer Molecular Dynamics (TRPMD), a recently-proposed approximate quantum dynamics method, to the computation of thermal reaction rates. Its short-time Transition-State Theory (TST) limit is identical to…

Wave packet molecular dynamics (WPMD) has recently received a lot of attention as a computationally fast tool to study dynamical processes in warm dense matter beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. These techniques, typically, employ…

It has been reported recently that the equipartition theorem is violated in molecular dynamics simulations with periodic boundary condition [Shirts et al, J. Chem. Phys. 125, 164102 (2006)]. This effect is associated with the conservation…

We describe a numerical method which allows us to go beyond the classical approximation for the real-time dynamics of many-body systems by approximating the many-body Wigner function by the most general Gaussian function with time-dependent…

We combined Moment Tensor Potential (MTP) and Ring Polymer Molecular Dynamics (RPMD) for calculating the thermal rate constants of the OH + HBr system. We used the active learning (AL) algorithm for constructing a training set during RPMD.…

The ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) rate theory is an efficient and accurate method for estimating rate coefficients of chemical reactions affected by nuclear quantum effects. The commonly used RPMD treatment of gas-phase bimolecular…

We demonstrate a new method of simulation of nonstationary quantum processes, considering the tunneling of two {\it interacting identical particles}, represented by wave packets. The used method of quantum molecular dynamics (WMD) is based…

The dynamics of compact binary systems at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) approximation of general relativity has been recently completed in a self-consistent way. In this paper, we compute the ten Poincar\'e constants of the motion and…
