Introduction

Multiscale metods in computational chemistry . . .

The importance of multiscale modeling in computational chemistry hasbeen strongly attested by the Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Karplus, Levittand Warshel.

Within this frame, a molecular system is divided into smaller subsystems,each of which being treated using different methods. The most prominentexample of a multiscale model is the combined quantum mechanics andmolecular mechanics (QM/MM) method.

Introduction

Multiscale metods . . .environment

One of the most important aspects of embedding models is the couplingbetween the central part and the environment. This coupling can bedivided into three subclasses : mechanical embedding, electrostaticembedding and polarizable embedding

mechanical embedding scheme is performed on a purely classical leveland it is therefore only suitable for groundstate energy calculations.

electrostatic embedding scheme includes one-electron operators in theelectronic Hamiltonian. This directly affects the electron density ofthe central part and thus also the calculated molecular properties.The environment is normally represented by atomic partial charges ormultipole moments.

polarizable embedding scheme is currently the most advancedQM/MM type embedding scheme. Here, the polarization effects inthe environment are also taken into account.

Introduction

Solvation effects . . .

90% of the chemistry is performed in solvation. There is a reciprocalinfluence of the solvant of the molecule under investigation

Especially for proteins containing many (partial) charges, atoms in theclassical region can contribute to the properties of the quantum regionthrough polarization interactions up to a distance of 20 Angstrom 1

This comes from the long range interaction due to the fact that a protein,even if globally neutral, has charges in some parts of the molecule. Inconclusion, it is not possible to simulate the protein and the surroundingwater molecule in such a large region, especially if you take into accountthe fact that the configuration richness should then be properly scanned inorder to get averages.

Introduction

Continuum solvation models are nowadays among the most popular toolsin computational chemistry to include the effects of the chemicalenvironment in the description of a molecular property or process.

These methods are based on the electrostatic problem of a density ofcharge accommodated in a properly shaped cavity surrounded by auniform, dielectric continuum.

Solvation effects . . .

The strength of these solvation models is their simplicity of use andcost-effectiveness, which has granted them a prominent role in a vast fieldof application, ranging from chemistry to biophysics to materials science.Continuum solvation models have been used together with both classicalmolecular mechanics (MM), quantum mechanics (QM) and hybrid(QM/MM) levels of theory to describe the solute and several differentformulations and implementations exist, including fully polarizableQM/MM/Continuum ones.

Introduction

Molecule in solution : solvation problem.

The electrostatic energy of the charge distribution ρ (classical pointcharges, electric dipoles and multipoles in force-field models, classicalnuclear charges and quantum electronic charge density in first-principle orsemi-empirical models) carried by the solute is modified by the presence ofthe solvent, and an extra term, called the electrostatic contribution to thesolvation energy, and denoted here by E s, must be added to theelectrostatic energy computed in vacuo. The contribution E s can bewritten as

E s =1

∫R3

ρ(r)V r(r) dr,

where V r is the reaction-field potential generated by the chargedistribution ρ in presence of the dielectric continuum.

Introduction

Iterative processThe algorithm used to solve the equation numerically in the space XN isthe following. Starting from a given couple (u0

N , λ0N), we solve at each step

the linear equation

−∆uk∗N + VNuk∗N + (uk−1

N )2uk∗N = λk−1N uk−1

N (7)

where VN is the approximate potential i.e. the projection of the potentialV on the space XN . We find uk∗N which is a non-normalized vector. So wenormalize it and write

ukN =uk∗N‖uk∗N ‖L2

Introduction

post Hartree-Fock . . .CI-Full CI

The linear combinaison of all these excited determinants represents all theantisymetric functions that can be built . . .Actually, all the exciteddeterminants may not be so useful . . .meaning that the coefficients infront of some of these, in the expansion of the ground state solution toSchrodinger problem, may be VERY small.

Would we know this a priori, we would look for minimization on reducedexpansions based on only those that are useful.

This is the spirit of Coupled Cluster approximations

There are still too many possibilities CCSDT leads to N8 complexityin a series of papers of Frank Neese and collaborators, it is explained howto select those few excitations that are the more relevant and onlyoptimize the coefficients in front of these.Notion of “Pair Natural Orbitals” further translated into “local ProjectedAtomic Orbitals”Linear scaling is now possible on these CC approaches with single, doubleand even triple excitations being able to capture as much as 99,8% of theenergy.

Nevertheless, as stated by Neese this involves an “incredible difficultbookkeeping problem” requiring to “look far enough ahead into thecalculation to figure out which integral is needed when and where — andwhy”.

The natural question is then to understand the link between the norm of tand the energy norm of the wave function. Following Reinhold Schneiderthis is provided by the quantity ‖t‖V defined by

‖t‖2V =

∑µ∈J

εµ|tµ|2

where εµ =∑k

i=1 λai − λ`i , and the λ’s are Hartree Fock eigenvalues inincreasing order. This norm is equivalent to the H1 norm of Ψ. The correctevaluation of the norm of the residual f(t) := (fµ(t))µ is thus

‖f‖2V ′ =

∑µ∈J

ε−1µ |fµ|2

Introduction

An adaptive strategy for Coupled Cluster Approximations

Starting from an initial index set J0 composed say of single excitations.The procedure — as usual in the adaptive process — follows the rule

ESTIMATE −→ MARK −→ REFINE :

at step i , in order to define Ji+1 we estimate those fµ(ti ) that may beadded in order to improve the accuracy of the computation.

∀µ ∈ J , fµ(ti ) :=< Ψµ|e−TiHeTi |Ψ0 >= 0

By marking those indices associated with the those that have the largestcontribution in the above V ′ (dual)-norm (i.e. with the relative weightε−1µ ) we add them in the set Ji to get a Ji+1 (finer) adapted set and we

continue recursively by enriching up to a level where the error estimator issmall at the required accuracy.
