Mariana Rossi, Venkat Kapil, Michele Ceriotti

摘要:

广义朗之万方程(GLE)恒温器已被非常有效地用作操纵和优化热力学系综采样和相关静态特性的工具。在这里,我们表明,一个类似的,精致的控制水平,可以实现从恒温轨迹计算的动力学特性。通过发展定量的措施引起的GLE的哈密顿动力学的谐振子的扰动,我们表明,这些分析结果准确地预测强非谐系统的行为。我们还表明,这是可能的,在很大程度上,GLE项到相应的微正则动力学的影响,这使得更坚实的理由,使用非平衡朗之万动力学近似量子核效应,并可以帮助提高预测的动力学量的技术,使用朗之万长期稳定动力学。最后,我们解决了使用恒温器的上下文中的近似路径积分为基础的量子核动力学模型。我们证明,一个定制的GLE可以减轻一些与这些技术相关的文物,提高质量的分子,液体和固体的振动动力学建模的结果。

英文摘要:

Generalized Langevin Equation (GLE) thermostats have been used very effectively as a tool to manipulate and optimize the sampling of thermodynamic ensembles and the associated static properties. Here we show that a similar, exquisite level of control can be achieved for the dynamical properties computed from thermostatted trajectories. By developing quantitative measures of the disturbance induced by the GLE to the Hamiltonian dynamics of a harmonic oscillator, we show that these analytical results accurately predict the behavior of strongly anharmonic systems. We also show that it is possible to correct, to a significant extent, the effects of the GLE term onto the corresponding microcanonical dynamics, which puts on more solid grounds the use of non-equilibrium Langevin dynamics to approximate quantum nuclear effects and could help improve the prediction of dynamical quantities from techniques that use a Langevin term to stabilize dynamics. Finally we address the use of thermostats in the context of approximate path-integral-based models of quantum nuclear dynamics. We demonstrate that a custom-tailored GLE can alleviate some of the artifacts associated with these techniques, improving the quality of results for the modelling of vibrational dynamics of molecules, liquids and solids.
