29 Propagator A good propagator must : Be quick and allow for large t Time reversible Conserve mechanical energy Compute forces not too frequently Conserve phase-space volume Basic idea : Taylor expansion ri (t + t) = r i (t) + v i (t) t + ai (t) 2 t vi (t + t) = v i (t) + a i (t) t + vi (t) 2 t Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.14/67

30 Verlet General expression : ri (t + t) = r i (t) + v i (t) t + ai (t) 2 t ri (t t) = r i (t) ai (t) v i (t) t + 2 t thus r i (t + t) = 2 r i (t) fi (t) r i (t t) + t 2 + O( t 3 ) M i Store position and forces only Accuracy in t 3 Time reversible by construction Velocities indirectly computed (finite differences) : less accurate vi = ( r i (t + t) r i (t t))/(2 t) + O( t 2 Ab Initio Molecular ) Dynamic p.15/67

31 Leap-Frog variant Designed to improve numerical accuracy ri (t + t) = r i (t) + v i (t + t 2 ) t vi (t + t 2 ) = v i (t t 2 ) + a i (t) t vi (t) = ( vi (t + t 2 ) v i (t t 2 )) /2 + O( t 2 ) More stable Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.16/67

32 Velocity Verlet Improve velocity accuracy ri (t + t) = r i (t) + v i (t) t + ai (t) 2 t2 vi (t + t) = ai (t) + a i (t + t) v i (t) + t 2 Velocity accuracy in O( t 3 ) Can be seen as a predictor-corrector Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.17/67

33 Verlet : Summary Graphical form : Velocity verlet often used because : Simple and efficient, little force computation Accurate in t 3 Time reversible, Symplectic (conserve phase space volume) For realistic time step, Velocity Verlet as good as Gear predictor-corrector Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.18/67

34 Constrained Dynamic Why using constraints : to get larger t (frozen d(ch)), prevent or force some evolution Principal : Lagrange multiplier Constraint defined by σ ({ r i }) = 0, For example : Distance : σ ({ r i }) = r i r j d 0 Difference of two distances : σ ({ r i }) = r i r j r k r l d 0 Coordination number : σ ({ r i }) = n i ({ r i }) n 0 with n i ({ r i }) = j i S( r i r j ) et S(r) = (1 + exp(κ(r r c ))) 1. Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.19/67

35 Constrained Dynamic Constraint defined by σ ({ r i }) = 0 Extended Lagrangian : L ({ r i }, { p i }) = L({ r i }, { p i }) α λ α σ α ({ r i }) Equations of motion : m i r i = V r i α λ α σ α r i SHAKE : λ α tq σ α ({ r i (t + t)}) = 0 RATTLE : λ α tq σ α ({ r i (t + t)}) = 0 Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.19/67

36 Which ensembles? By default, isolated system E conserved, i.e. NVE Initialize { p i } so that E tot = E target then propagate How can we obtain other ensembles?

44 Andersen or Hybrid Monte Carlo Mix DM and Monte Carlo to simulate chocs with the thermal bath Andersen The velocity of a random particle is withdrawn from the MD distribution ; Ergodic by construction, converges to the NVT associated to the MB distribution ; Many particles can be chosen at once Re-attribution period not so important Re-attribution does not kick wafefunction too far from BO surface Hybrid Monte Carlo : all velocities are changed at once Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.25/67

45 Langevin Still stochastic, but white noise added directly in the equation of motion for all particles q = p t m ṗ = V (q) ξ m p + 2ξ β dw(t)/dt with W(t) a gaussian white noise Physically (mathematically?) : the most efficient to thermalize, the fastest to converge but very rare in chemistry, and badly behave in CPMD Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.26/67

46 False thermostat : Berendsen Can be seen as a rescaling, with α(t + t) = = [ 1 + t τ [ 1 + ( T T (t + t) 1 t τt (t + t) )] 1/2 (T T (t + t)) T T (t + t) affects α and not α Very used in biochemistry but do not sample the canonical ensemble!

94 Rare event? System position for E a = 5 k B T Nothing at the TS! Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.57/67

95 Rare event? System position for E a k B T Alternating between the two states. Long residence time, short transition time. k TST 1s 1 Slow reaction rare event. Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.57/67

96 Why is it so difficult? Standard MD is a "real time" method, t fs Chemical reaction time : fast around ns, typical around µs-ms, biology can be seconds Two incompatible time scales More, phase space dimension is 6N, impossible to fully sample Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.58/67

97 Why is it so difficult? Two incompatible time scales Solutions Work at higher T : faster sampling but might be not the same phenomena Force the reaction to occur : Biais potential Constrained dynamic Adiabatic dynamic Metadynamic In all cases, we calculate F, not F Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.58/67

98 Bias potential Many approaches : Umbrella sampling, adaptive biais potential, accelerated dynamics, flooding potential... Main Idea : we add a potential to "erase" the barrier V ({ Rk }) = V ({ Rk }) + V Then get the non-biaised energy : O ({ Rk }) = O ({ Rk }) exp (β V) ( q ({ Rk })) exp (β V) Problem : we do not know the barrier position, height and shape! In practice : many simulations with a moving model Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.59/67 potential

99 Umbrella Sampling Usual bias : V ( q ({ Rk })) [ q ({ Rk }) ] 2 z Simulations for different z Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.60/67

100 Constrained dynamics Two families : q evolves continuously from z 0 to z f during the simulation Slow growth method : slow evolution, quasi-static Fast growth method, Jarzinsky : fast evolution, average taken on many trajectories exp ( βw) = exp ( βf) Many simulation with q set to different values of z. Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.61/67

101 Thermodynamic integration Change in free energy calculated by integrating free energy derivative : F(z = z 0 z = z f ) = zf z 0 F q dq Numerical evaluation using discrete values A constrained simulation is launched for each value of q(z). How to obtain F q (z)? Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.62/67

102 Free energy derivatives Two problems : q = z q = 0 : no sampling for the impulsion p q.

103 Free energy derivatives Two problems : q = z q = 0 : no sampling { for the impulsion p q. Rk } q is non linear with respect to, Jacobian matrix J non unity F q (z) = V q + k BT ln J q q=z Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.63/67

104 Free energy derivatives Two problems : q = z q = 0 : no sampling { for the impulsion p q. Rk } q is non linear with respect to, Jacobian matrix J non unity F q (z) = Z 1/2 [ λ + k B T G] q=z Z 1/2 q=z q R k 2 q q R k R l R l, with G = 1 1 Z k,l 2 M k M l λ Lagrange multiplier associated to the constraint σ ({ Rk }) = q z = 0 (SHAKE) Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.63/67

105 Adiabatic dynamics Idea : Decoupling motions along q from other motions Use different temperatures One (chain) thermostat associated to q One (chain) thermostat associated to the N-1 other degrees of freedom T q T nuc Change the mass of atoms concerned by q Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.64/67

106 Coarse MD Metadynamic Idea : Similar to the adiabatic dynamics, using extended Lagrangian! Reaction coordinates are included as collective variables (CV) s α for CV L = L 0 + α 1 2 M α s α 2 α 1 2 k α [S α (r) s α ] 2 M α large enough natural adiabatic separation Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.65/67

107 Coarse MD Metadynamic Idea : Similar to the adiabatic dynamics, using extended Lagrangian! Reaction coordinates are included as collective variables (CV) s α for CV on top of this, potential wells are filled with gaussians V (t) = i W exp ( s s i(t) 2 2δσ 2 Important choices for W, σ, time interval between adding two gaussians ) Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.65/67

113 How to choose a good RC? In practice, difficult to sample a coordinate space larger than 3D Chemist intuition might fail!! Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.66/67

114 Conclusion Already many tools but choosing RC is still a hot topic for large systems Classical nuclei : what about quantum effects? Corrections a posteriori : tunneling, isotopic effects Path Integral ZPE correction Ab Initio Molecular Dynamic p.67/67
