The main purpose of this course was to give some theoretical background on the M¿ller-Plesset and coupled cluster methods. Both computational methods are available in many quantum chemical \black box" programs. The audi- ence consisted of graduate students, mostly with an undergraduate chemistry education and doing research in theoretical chemistry. A basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and quantum chemistry is pre- supposed. In particular a knowledge of Slater determinants, Slater-Condon rules and Hartree-Fock theory is a prerequisite of understanding the following notes. In Appendix A this theory is reviewed briefly. Because of time limitations hardly any proofs are given, the theory is sketchily outlined. No attempt is made to integrate out the spin, the theory is formulated in terms of spin-orbitals only.

Abstract: This article describes the software suite GROMACS (Groningen MAchine for Chemical Simulation) that was developed at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands, in the early 1990s. The software, written in ANSI C, originates from a parallel hardware project, and is well suited for parallelization on processor clusters. By careful optimization of neighbor searching and of inner loop performance, GROMACS is a very fast program for molecular dynamics simulation. It does not have a force field of its own, but is compatible with GROMOS, OPLS, AMBER, and ENCAD force fields. In addition, it can handle polarizable shell models and flexible constraints. The program is versatile, as force routines can be added by the user, tabulated functions can be specified, and analyses can be easily customized. Nonequilibrium dynamics and free energy determinations are incorporated. Interfaces with popular quantum-chemical packages (MOPAC, GAMES-UK, GAUSSIAN) are provided to perform mixed MM/QM simula- tions. The package includes about 100 utility and analysis programs.

Ghahremanpour , Paul J. van Maaren & David van der Spoel Accepted: 19 February 2018 Published: 10 April 2018 Data quality as well as library size are crucial issues for force field development. In order to predict molecular properties in a large chemical space, the foundation to build force fields on needs to encompass a large variety of chemical compounds. The tabulated molecular physicochemical properties also need to be accurate. Due to the limited transparency in data used for development of existing force fields it is hard to establish data quality and reusability is low. This paper presents the Alexandria library as an open and freely accessible database of optimized molecular geometries, frequencies, electrostatic moments up to the hexadecupole, electrostatic potential, polarizabilities, and thermochemistry, obtained from quantum chemistry calculations for 2704 compounds. Values are tabulated and where available compared to experimental data. This library can assist systematic development and training of empirical force fields for a broad range of molecules.

  • Effective Hamiltonians Derived from Equation-Of-Motion Coupled-Cluster

    Effective Hamiltonians Derived from Equation-Of-Motion Coupled-Cluster

    Effective Hamiltonians derived from equation-of-motion coupled-cluster wave-functions: Theory and application to the Hubbard and Heisenberg Hamiltonians Pavel Pokhilkoa and Anna I. Krylova a Department of Chemistry, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California 90089-0482 Effective Hamiltonians, which are commonly used for fitting experimental observ- ables, provide a coarse-grained representation of exact many-electron states obtained in quantum chemistry calculations; however, the mapping between the two is not triv- ial. In this contribution, we apply Bloch's formalism to equation-of-motion coupled- cluster (EOM-CC) wave functions to rigorously derive effective Hamiltonians in the Bloch's and des Cloizeaux's forms. We report the key equations and illustrate the theory by examples of systems with electronic states of covalent and ionic characters. We show that the Hubbard and Heisenberg Hamiltonians are extracted directly from the so-obtained effective Hamiltonians. By making quantitative connections between many-body states and simple models, the approach also facilitates the analysis of the correlated wave functions. Artifacts affecting the quality of electronic structure calculations such as spin contamination are also discussed. I. INTRODUCTION Coarse graining is commonly used in computational chemistry and physics. It is ex- ploited in a number of classic models serving as a foundation of modern solid-state physics: tight binding[1, 2], Drude{Sommerfeld's model[3{5], Hubbard's [6] and Heisenberg's[7{9] Hamiltonians. These models explain macroscopic properties of materials through effective interactions whose strengths are treated as model parameters. The values of these pa- rameters are determined either from more sophisticated theoretical models or by fitting to experimental observables.

    Bornologically Isomorphic Representations of Tensor Distributions

    Bornologically isomorphic representations of distributions on manifolds E. Nigsch Thursday 15th November, 2018 Abstract Distributional tensor fields can be regarded as multilinear mappings with distributional values or as (classical) tensor fields with distribu- tional coefficients. We show that the corresponding isomorphisms hold also in the bornological setting. 1 Introduction ′ ′ ′r s ′ Let D (M) := Γc(M, Vol(M)) and Ds (M) := Γc(M, Tr(M) ⊗ Vol(M)) be the strong duals of the space of compactly supported sections of the volume s bundle Vol(M) and of its tensor product with the tensor bundle Tr(M) over a manifold; these are the spaces of scalar and tensor distributions on M as defined in [?, ?]. A property of the space of tensor distributions which is fundamental in distributional geometry is given by the C∞(M)-module isomorphisms ′r ∼ s ′ ∼ r ′ Ds (M) = LC∞(M)(Tr (M), D (M)) = Ts (M) ⊗C∞(M) D (M) (1) (cf.

  • Solution: the First Element of the Dual Basis Is the Linear Function Α

    Solution: the First Element of the Dual Basis Is the Linear Function Α

    Homework assignment 7 pp. 105 3 Exercise 2. Let B = f®1; ®2; ®3g be the basis for C defined by ®1 = (1; 0; ¡1) ®2 = (1; 1; 1) ®3 = (2; 2; 0): Find the dual basis of B. Solution: ¤ The first element of the dual basis is the linear function ®1 such ¤ ¤ ¤ that ®1(®1) = 1; ®1(®2) = 0 and ®1(®3) = 0. To describe such a function more explicitly we need to find its values on the standard basis vectors e1, e2 and e3. To do this express e1; e2; e3 through ®1; ®2; ®3 (refer to the solution of Exercise 1 pp. 54-55 from Homework 6). For each i = 1; 2; 3 you will find the numbers ai; bi; ci such that e1 = ai®1 + bi®2 + ci®3 (i.e. the coordinates of ei relative to the ¤ ¤ ¤ basis ®1; ®2; ®3). Then by linearity of ®1 we get that ®1(ei) = ai. Then ®2(ei) = bi, ¤ and ®3(ei) = ci. This is the answer. It can also be reformulated as follows. If P is the transition matrix from the standard basis e1; e2; e3 to ®1; ®2; ®3, i.e. ¡1 t (®1; ®2; ®3) = (e1; e2; e3)P , then (P ) is the transition matrix from the dual basis ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¡1 t e1; e2; e3 to the dual basis ®1; ®2; a3, i.e. (®1; ®2; a3) = (e1; e2; e3)(P ) . Note that this problem is basically the change of coordinates problem: e.g. ¤ 3 the value of ®1 on the vector v 2 C is the first coordinate of v relative to the basis ®1; ®2; ®3.
