12 Kohn Sham Method Minimize E KS (C) Constraints: C T SC = 1 S: Overlap matrix, metric Optimization using gradient methods: Gradient H KS C H KS is the Kohn Sham matrix

13 Kohn Sham Matrix Kohn Sham matrix is sparse (in localized basis functions) allows for a linear scaling calculation of H KS HIV-1 Protease-DMP323 complex in solution (3200 atoms)

17 Scaling Kohn-Sham Matrix Time [s] Number of Basis Functions

18 Parallelization Conflicting needs for optimal distributions Data layout for sparse operator matrices. Data layout for real/fourier space grids. Parallel 3d-FFT (typical grid sizes ). Typical support of basis function is grid points. Large overlapping regions. Optimize a complex, empirical work function using Monte Carlo techniques.

24 Simplification of minimization method Transform constrained minimization problem { } C = arg min E[C] C T SC = 1, C into an unconstrained minimization of where C = arg min C { E[f(C)]}, E[f(C)] = E[f n (C)] + O(E[δC n ]). with C = C 0 + δc and C T 0 SC 0 = 1. V. Weber, JH, J. Phys. Comm (2008)

25 Orbital Refinement Function z = z 0 + δz and z T 0 Sz 0 = 1 f 2 (z) = 1 z (3 Y), 2 f 3 (z) = 1 8 z (15 10Y + 3Y 2), f 4 (z) = 1 16 z (35 35Y + 21Y 2 5Y 3), and f 5 (z) = z ( Y + 378Y 2 180Y Y 4), f T n (z)sf n (z) 1 = O(δz n ).

26 Optimization Nonlinear conjugate gradients with line search Includes only matrix additions and multiplications Simplifies parallelization and use of sparsity Reduces prefactor but is less stable than orbital transformations

27 Example: Liquid Water (H 2 O) 512 (H 2 O) 1024 (H 2 O) 2048 basis functions CPUs (XT4) n iter SCF f ks f other f mini t tot [min]

28 Linear scaling optimization To reach linear scaling, matrix C has to be sparse. Solution is invariant to unitary transformations of C We only need a representation of the space spanned by C. Sparse representations of C are called localized orbitals. Standard techniques in quantum chemistry based on physical properties. Efficient algorithms need parallel sparse matrix-matrix multiply

29 L1-Norm Localization Smooth sparseness function based on L1 norm { y ε1 /2 y ε φ(y) = 1 y 2 /2ε 1 y < ε 1, Parameterization of orbitals: C(U) = CU, U is a M M unitary matrix U(X) = exp X where X is an antisymmetric matrix. Optimization of U = arg max φ(u(x)). X

31 Combine Optimization and Localization Molecular dynamics, 1024 water molecules MO 1E-5/1E-6/1E-7 DM 1E-5/1E-6/1E-7 Occupation Total SCF iterations Open question: How does sparseness threshold affect MD stability?
