3 Free energy, one quantity, many definitions (in this page, Helmholtz free energy, F(N,V,T)) Thermodynamics Ab initio if we can calculate E and write analytically on approximation for S for our system, we use this expression. Example: ab initio atomistic thermodynamics. Thermodynamic Integration Ab initio or similar derivatives that yield measurable quantities (in a computer simulation): one can estimate the free energy by integrating such relations. This is the class of the so called thermodynamic integration methods.

Constraint these collective variables at a given point in s Perform metadynamics in space of collective coordinates...

45 Metadynamics: pros and cons Advantages: General Can cope with high dimensionality Predictive, wide exploration of free energy surface (with lower resolution) Disadvantages: Careful choice of the collective variables Inaccurate if a slow variable is forgotten (can be checked a posteriori) Choice of good (optimal) parametres (masses, coupling constants,... ) not straightforward What happenes if a single reaction coordinate is not enough? The low energy path might not be captured
