Introducing ONETEP: Linear-Scaling Density Functional Simulations on Parallel Computers Chris-Kriton Skylaris,A) Peter D
THE JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS 122, 084119 ͑2005͒ Introducing ONETEP: Linear-scaling density functional simulations on parallel computers Chris-Kriton Skylaris,a) Peter D. Haynes, Arash A. Mostofi, and Mike C. Payne Theory of Condensed Matter, Cavendish Laboratory, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 0HE, United Kingdom ͑Received 29 September 2004; accepted 4 November 2004; published online 23 February 2005͒ We present ONETEP ͑order-N electronic total energy package͒, a density functional program for parallel computers whose computational cost scales linearly with the number of atoms and the number of processors. ONETEP is based on our reformulation of the plane wave pseudopotential method which exploits the electronic localization that is inherent in systems with a nonvanishing band gap. We summarize the theoretical developments that enable the direct optimization of strictly localized quantities expressed in terms of a delocalized plane wave basis. These same localized quantities lead us to a physical way of dividing the computational effort among many processors to allow calculations to be performed efficiently on parallel supercomputers. We show with examples that ONETEP achieves excellent speedups with increasing numbers of processors and confirm that the time taken by ONETEP as a function of increasing number of atoms for a given number of processors is indeed linear. What distinguishes our approach is that the localization is achieved in a controlled and mathematically consistent manner so that ONETEP obtains the same accuracy as conventional cubic-scaling plane wave approaches and offers fast and stable convergence. We expect that calculations with ONETEP have the potential to provide quantitative theoretical predictions for problems involving thousands of atoms such as those often encountered in nanoscience and biophysics. -

WWW.C-CHEM.ORG FULL PAPER Natural Bond Orbital Analysis in the ONETEP Code: Applications to Large Protein Systems Louis P. Lee,*[a] Daniel J. Cole,[a] Mike C. Payne,[a] and Chris-Kriton Skylaris[b] First principles electronic structure calculations are typically Generalized Wannier Functions of ONETEP to natural atomic performed in terms of molecular orbitals (or bands), providing a orbitals, NBO analysis can be performed within a localized straightforward theoretical avenue for approximations of region in such a way that ensures the results are identical to an increasing sophistication, but do not usually provide any analysis on the full system. We demonstrate the capabilities of qualitative chemical information about the system. We can this approach by performing illustrative studies of large derive such information via post-processing using natural bond proteins—namely, investigating changes in charge transfer orbital (NBO) analysis, which produces a chemical picture of between the heme group of myoglobin and its ligands with bonding in terms of localized Lewis-type bond and lone pair increasing system size and between a protein and its explicit orbitals that we can use to understand molecular structure and solvent, estimating the contribution of electronic delocalization interactions. We present NBO analysis of large-scale calculations to the stabilization of hydrogen bonds in the binding pocket of with the ONETEP linear-scaling density functional theory package, a drug-receptor complex, and observing, in situ, the n ! p* which we have interfaced with the NBO 5 analysis program.

Atomistic models of the polyphenolic resins to be used in the RMD were constructed using an automatic method which calls routines from the software package Materials Studio. In order to validate the models, simulated densities and heat capacities were compared with experimental values. The most suitable combination of force field and thermostat for this system was the Forcite force field with the Nosé–Hoover thermostat, which gave values of heat capacity closest to those of the experimental values. Simulated densities approached a final density of 1.05–1.08 g/cm3 which compared favorably with the experimental values of 1.16–1.21 g/cm3 for phenol-formaldehyde resins. -

Compact Orbitals Enable Low-Cost Linear-Scaling Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics for Weakly-Interacting Systems Hayden Scheiber,1, A) Yifei Shi,1 and Rustam Z
Compact orbitals enable low-cost linear-scaling ab initio molecular dynamics for weakly-interacting systems Hayden Scheiber,1, a) Yifei Shi,1 and Rustam Z. Khaliullin1, b) Department of Chemistry, McGill University, 801 Sherbrooke St. West, Montreal, QC H3A 0B8, Canada Today, ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) relies on the locality of one-electron density matrices to achieve linear growth of computation time with systems size, crucial in large-scale simulations. While Kohn-Sham orbitals strictly localized within predefined radii can offer substantial computational advantages over density matrices, such compact orbitals are not used in AIMD because a compact representation of the electronic ground state is difficult to find. Here, a robust method for maintaining compact orbitals close to the ground state is coupled with a modified Langevin integrator to produce stable nuclear dynamics for molecular and ionic systems. This eliminates a density matrix optimization and enables first orbital-only linear-scaling AIMD. An application to liquid water demonstrates that low computational overhead of the new method makes it ideal for routine medium-scale simulations while its linear-scaling complexity allows to extend first- principle studies of molecular systems to completely new physical phenomena on previously inaccessible length scales. Since the unification of molecular dynamics and den- LS methods restrict their use in dynamical simulations sity functional theory (DFT)1, ab initio molecular dy- to very short time scales, systems of low dimensions, namics (AIMD) has become an important tool to study and low-quality minimal basis sets6,18–20. On typical processes in molecules and materials. Unfortunately, the length and time scales required in practical and accurate computational cost of the conventional Kohn-Sham (KS) AIMD simulations, LS DFT still cannot compete with DFT grows cubically with the number of atoms, which the straightforward low-cost cubically-scaling KS DFT. -
