5 Key elements of Frozen-Density Embedding Theory (FDET) FDET as a basis for multi-level simulation methods Some applications Retaining the wavefunction resolution for a small number of electrons (N A ) and represent the remaining ones (even if their number is macroscopic) by means of an embedding operator - ˆV emb. The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2013 was awarded jointly to Martin Karplus, Michael Levitt and Arieh Warshel for the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems.

6 FDET among embedding methods Key elements of Frozen-Density Embedding Theory (FDET) FDET as a basis for multi-level simulation methods Some applications Probably any method developed in Quantum Chemistry has been combined with some embedding potential: atomistic (QM/MM, QM/MD, QM/QM ) or continuum models (PCM, COSMO) for the environment. In these methods: ˆV emb is a local operator (potential) or a non-local operator (projection operator) Parameters such as charges, van der Waals parameters, polarizabilities are deduced from experimental data or generated by Quantum Mechanical methods (non-empirical force-fields). The exchange-repulsion and van der Waals interactions - in QM/MM methods are added a posteriori, i.e., after solving (ĤA + ˆV emb ) Ψ A = E Ψ A. In Frozen-Density Embedding Theory, we use the key ideas of Density Functional Theory to obtain universal-system independent and self-consistent expressions for the total energy and ˆV emb as functionals of charge densities. constrained search, multiplicative potentials as functional derivatives, Euler-Lagrange equation

7 Key elements of Frozen-Density Embedding Theory (FDET) FDET as a basis for multi-level simulation methods Some applications FDET is: Variational principle : E o E min [ρ B ] = min Ψ A E EWF AB [Ψ A, ρ B ] Euler Lagrange equation : (ĤA + ˆv emb ) Ψ I A = ɛi Ψ I A ρb ( r ) Embedding potential : v emb [ρ A, ρ B, v B ]( r) = v B ( r) + r r d r + δe nad xct [ρ A, ρ B ] δρ A ( r) Approximations made in FDET based simulations Choice of a method to solve many-body quantum problem ĤA ˆ HA Not really the problem of embedding Exc nad [ρ A, ρ B ] Ẽ xc nad [ρ A, ρ B ] and F MD [ρ A ] Ts nad nad [ρ A, ρ B ] T s [ρ A, ρ B ] Are sufficiently accurate approximations available? How good is vt nad [ρ A, ρ B ]( r) obtained form the Lembarki-Chermette approximation to T s [ρ]? Choice of ρ B ( r) Investigation of the sensitivity of the FDFT results on ρ B needed. Monomer vs. supermolecular basis set expansions Localization of embedded wavefunction imposed or not?

26 Decomposable approximations: The challenge Lembarki-Chermette approximation to T s [ρ] More on E x [ρ] and T s [ρ] conjointness conjecture Decomposable approximations for T nad s [ρ A, ρ B ] GGA97 approximation to vt nad [ρ A, ρ B ]( r) Using the Lembarki-Chermette functional to approximate vt nad [ρ A, ρ B ]( r) is a pragmatic solution. It replaces the construction of a well-balanced* approximation for T s [ρ]. In volume elements, where such imbalances are likely to occur, the non-additive ikinetic energy density (and potentials) approach smoothly zero or the LDA limit. This is achieved by means of using the PW91 enhancement factor which approaches zero at large reduced density gradients, i.e., where the von Weizsaecker term is expected to dominate. *Similar errors in T s [ρ A + ρ B ], T s [ρ A ] and their functional derivatives.

45 Pros and cons of density embedding Multi-level par excellence (not only multi-qm but multi-physics). Self-consistent expressions for energy and embedded wavefunction (for calculation of other observables than the energy). Upper bound for the total energy. Simple overlap based criterion for applicability. No need for man-power hungry parametrizations of QM/MM methods. Local embedding potential. Bleak prospects for good approximations for Ts nad [ρ A, ρ B ] at strong density overlaps. This limits the applicability of density embedding to well separated (although overlapping densities) subsystems. Applicable for strongly asymetric situations (electronic structure simple for the environment and difficult for the embedded species). Necessity to put experimental information about partitioning of electrons and generating ρ B. Necessity to investigate the sensitivity of the results on ρ B. Strong correlations between subsystems difficult to describe using local potentials.
