Journal ArticleDOI
Monte Carlo Renormalization Group for Systems with Quenched Disorder
Yantao Wu,Roberto Car +1 more
TL;DR: To quenched-disordered systems the variational scheme for real-space renormalization group calculations that was introduced for homogeneous spin Hamiltonians is extended, using the bias potential found by minimizing a convex functional in statistical mechanics to reduce the Monte Carlo relaxation time in large disordered systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamical optimization for partition theory.
Morrel H. Cohen,Roberto Car +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that this CP implementation of PT need not increase the complexity of the computation of the system's electronic structure, and the scheme provides an exact DFT formulation of atoms in molecules theory that is amenable to numerical implementation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen in Crystalline and Amorphous Silicon
TL;DR: In this article, the static and dynamic properties of hydrogen in crystalline and amorphous silicon were investigated by means of ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, focusing mainly on the diffusion process of an isolated positively charged hydrogen impurity at high temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Rotations, Multiscale Order, Hyperuniformity, and Signatures of Metastability during the Compression/Decompression Cycles of Amorphous Ices.
TL;DR: In this paper , the role of molecular rotations in the phase transitions between amorphous ices and shows how the unfreezing of rotational degrees of freedom generates a cascade effect that propagates over multiple length-scales.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
PbTiO3 at Finite Temperature: An Ab‐initio Molecular Dynamics Study
TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of PbTiO3 at finite temperature by ab-initio molecular dynamics simulations is studied, in which classical mechanics is used to describe nuclear dynamics, while the interatomic potential is generated on the fly from the ground state of the electrons within density functional theory.
