Born-Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics (BOMD) is a powerful but expensive technique. The main bottleneck in a density functional theory bomd calculation is the solution to the Kohn-Sham (KS) equations, that requires an iterative procedure that…
In this paper, we consider an unconstrained stochastic optimization problem where the objective function exhibits high-order smoothness. Specifically, we propose a new stochastic first-order method (SFOM) with multi-extrapolated momentum,…
To leverage the redundancy between the electronic structure computed at each step of first-principles molecular dynamics, we present a data-driven modeling framework for Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory that bypasses the explicit…
In Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) simulations based on density functional theory (DFT), the potential energy and the interatomic forces are calculated from an electronic ground state density that is determined by an iterative…
We formulate a time-dependent density functional theory for the coupled dynamics of electrons and nuclei that goes beyond the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation. We prove that the time-dependent marginal nuclear probability density…
Extended Lagrangian Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics [Niklasson, Phys. Rev. Lett. 100 123004 (2008)] has been generalized to the propagation of the electronic wavefunctions. The technique allows highly efficient first principles…
Extended Lagrangian Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (XL-BOMD) [Phys. Rev. Lett. vol. 100, 123004 (2008)] is combined with Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) using a DFT+U correction based on the Hubbard model. This combined…
A new "on the fly" method to perform Born-Oppenheimer ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) is presented. Inspired by Ehrenfest dynamics in time-dependent density functional theory, the electronic orbitals are evolved by a Schroedinger-like…
Molecular dynamics simulations are indispensable for exploring the behavior of atoms and molecules. Grounded in quantum mechanical principles, quantum molecular dynamics provides high predictive power but its computational cost is dominated…
With the continuous growth of processing power for scientific computing, first principles Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are becoming increasingly popular for the study of a wide range of problems in materials science,…
In the recent years, multi-core processor designs have found their way into many computing devices. To exploit the capabilities of such devices in the best possible way, signal processing algorithms have to be adapted to an operation in…
An accelerated polynomial expansion scheme to construct the density matrix in quantum mechanical molecular dynamics simulations is proposed. The scheme is based on recursive density matrix expansions, e.g. [Phys. Rev. B. 66 (2002), p.…
The fast Ewald methods are widely used to compute the point-charge electrostatic interactions in molecular simulations. The key step that introduces errors in the computation is the particle-mesh interpolation. In this work, the optimal…
We analyze the time reversible Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (TRBOMD) scheme, which preserves the time reversibility of the Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics even with non-convergent self-consistent field iteration. In the linear…
The integration time step is a critical determinant of performance in molecular dynamics simulations, governing the trade-off between speed and fidelity. Although 2 fs remains the standard in atomistic biomolecular simulations, the push for…
This article proposes a so-called Quasi Time-Reversible (QTR G-Ext) scheme based on Grassmann extrapolation of density matrices for an accurate calculation of initial guesses in Born-Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics simulations. The method…
The general procedure underlying Hartree-Fock and Kohn-Sham density functional theory calculations consists in optimizing orbitals for a self-consistent solution of the Roothaan-Hall equations in an iterative process. It is often ignored…
We develop new methods for approximating conformal blocks as positive functions times polynomials, with applications to the numerical bootstrap. We argue that to obtain accurate bootstrap bounds, conformal block approximations should…
Born-Oppenheimer dynamics is shown to provide an accurate approximation of time-independent Schr\"odinger observables for a molecular system with an electron spectral gap, in the limit of large ratio of nuclei and electron masses, without…
In the theory of open quantum systems, spectral densities are key quantities for modeling the dynamics and spectroscopic properties of the system under investigation. In the case of light-harvesting complexes, they encode the…
