    Better, Faster Fermionic Neural Networks James Spencery, David Pfauy, Aleksandar Botevy, W. M. C. Foulkes∗ yDeepMind, ∗Imperial College London London, UK {jamessspencer, pfau, botev}@google.com, [email protected] Abstract The Fermionic Neural Network (FermiNet) [12] is a recently-developed neural network architecture that can be used as a wavefunction Ansatz for many-electron systems, and has already demonstrated high accuracy on small systems. Here we present several improvements to the FermiNet that allow us to set new records for speed and accuracy on challenging systems. We find that increasing the size of the network is sufficient to reach chemical accuracy on atoms as large as argon. Through a combination of implementing FermiNet in JAX and simplifying several parts of the network, we are able to reduce the number of GPU hours needed to train the FermiNet on large systems by an order of magnitude. This enables us to run the FermiNet on the challenging transition of bicyclobutane to butadiene and compare against the PauliNet on the automerization of cyclobutadiene, and we achieve results near the state of the art for both. 1 Introduction Accurate computational solutions to the Schrödinger equation are critical for quantum chemistry and condensed matter physics. The time-independent form of the equation tries to solve for a wavefunction (x1; x2;:::; xn), which is an eigenfunction of the Hamiltonian, H^ of the system: H^ (x1;:::; xn) = E (x1;:::; xn) (1) H^ = − 1 P r2 + P 1 − P ZI + P ZI ZJ (2) 2 i i i>j jri−rj j iI jri−RI j I>J jRI −RJ j Here E is the real-valued energy of the wavefunction, xi (ri) is the position and spin (position) of the ith electron, RI is the position of the Ith nucleus and ZI is the charge of the Ith nucleus.

Rapid intersystem crossing from the defect’s triplet to singlet manifolds explains the observed short excited-state lifetime and very low quantum yield. New experimental results reveal smaller intrinsic spectral bandwidths than previously recognized, interpreted in terms of spectral narrowing and zero-phonon-line shifting induced by the Jahn-Teller effect. Different types of computational methods are applied to map out the complex triplet and singlet defect manifolds, including the doubly ionized formulation of the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster theory that is designed to deal with the open-shell nature of defect states, and mixed quantum-mechanics/molecular-mechanics schemes enabling 5763-atom simulations.

  • Symposium Program
    “A little insight goes a long way: a transformative role of theory in spectroscopy and chemical dynamics.” A symposium in honor of Prof. Benny Gerber “The purpose of computing is insight, not numbers” !!!!!!!R.W. Hamming The symposium will highlight a transformative role that theory plays in modern research by making bold predictions, guiding the design of new experiments, and enabling insightful interpretation of experimental observations. The focus of the symposium will be on the theories and computational approaches connecting experimental observations to the underlying interactions between atoms and molecules developed by Prof. Benny Gerber and his colleagues, collaborators, students, and post docs. The topics will cover a broad range of experimental and theoretical physical chemistry including atmospheric processes, novel rare gas containing compound, new spectroscopic approaches, and more. Symposium sponsors: Fritz Haber Center (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem) University of California, Irvine University of Southern California Q-Chem, Inc Preliminary program: The symposium is a part of ACS National Meeting in Dallas, March 16-20, 2014. We are scheduled for Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday (Tuesday is reserved for ACS award symposia). On Monday evening, a hosted symposium reception and dinner is planned. Session I: Biology and condensed phase (Sunday AM) Chair: Anna Krylov 810-815 Welcome remarks 815-845!
