A hybrid analytical-numerical integration scheme is introduced to accelerate the Fock build in self-consistent field (SCF) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations. To evaluate the Coulomb matrix [], the density matrix is first decomposed into two parts, the superposition of atomic density matrices and the rest = -. While [] is evaluated analytically, [] is evaluated fully numerically [with the multipole expansion of the Coulomb potential (MECP)] during the SCF iterations.

Energy decomposition analysis (EDA) based on density functional theory (DFT) and self-consistent field (SCF) calculations has become widely used for understanding intermolecular interactions. This work reports a new approach to EDA for post-SCF wave functions based on closed-shell restricted second-order Mo̷ller-Plesset (MP2) together with an efficient implementation that generalizes the successful SCF-level second-generation absolutely localized molecular orbital EDA approach, ALMO-EDA-II, and improves upon MP2 ALMO-EDA-I. The new MP2 ALMO-EDA-II provides distinct energy contributions for a frozen interaction energy containing permanent electrostatics and Pauli repulsions, polarized energy-yielding induced electrostatics, dispersion-corrected energy, and the fully relaxed energy, which describes charge transfer.

Efficiently obtaining atomic-scale thermodynamic parameters characterizing crystallization from solution is key to developing the modeling strategies needed in the quest for digital design strategies for industrial crystallization processes. Based on the thermodynamics of crystal nucleation in confined solutions, we develop a simulation framework to efficiently estimate the solubility and surface tension of organic crystals in solution from a few unbiased molecular dynamics simulations at a reference temperature. We then show that such a result can be extended with minimal computational overhead to capture the solubility curve.

We present an implementation of the quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) method for periodic systems using GPU accelerated QM methods, a distributed multipole formulation of the electrostatics, and a pseudobond treatment of the QM/MM boundary. We demonstrate that our method has well-controlled errors, stable self-consistent QM convergence, and energy-conserving dynamics. We further describe an application to the catalytic kinetics of chorismate mutase.

The orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) based method is a convenient tool to carry out electronic structure calculations scaling almost linearly with the number of electrons. However, the main impediment in the application of this method is the unavailability of the accurate form for the non-interacting kinetic energy functional in terms of electron density. The Pauli kinetic energy functional is the unknown part of the kinetic energy functional, and the corresponding Pauli potential appears in the governing Euler equation.
