We introduce new and robust decompositions of mean-field Hartree-Fock and Kohn-Sham density functional theory relying on the use of localized molecular orbitals and physically sound charge population protocols. The new lossless property decompositions, which allow for partitioning one-electron reduced density matrices into either bond-wise or atomic contributions, are compared to alternatives from the literature with regard to both molecular energies and dipole moments. Besides commenting on…

A robust protocol for probing localized electronic structure in condensed-phase systems, operating in terms of a recently proposed theory for decomposing the results of Kohn-Sham density functional theory in a basis of spatially localized molecular orbitals is demonstrated.

Deep Stochastic Mechanics

A novel deep-learning-based approach for numerical simulation of a time-evolving Schr\"odinger equation inspired by stochastic mechanics and generative diffusion models that allows it to adapt to the latent low-dimensional structure of the wave function by sampling from the Markovian diffusion.

Quantum Alchemy Based Bonding Trends and Their Link to Hammett's Equation and Pauling's Electronegativity Model.

We present an intuitive and general analytical approximation estimating the energy of covalent single and double bonds between participating atoms in terms of their respective nuclear charges with

Decomposing Chemical Space: Applications to the Machine Learning of Atomic Energies.

We apply a number of atomic decomposition schemes across the standard QM7 data set─a small model set of organic molecules at equilibrium geometry─to inspect the possible emergence of trends among

From quantum alchemy to Hammett's equation: Covalent bonding from atomic energy partitioning

We present an intuitive and general analytical approximation estimating the energy of covalent single and double bonds between participating atoms in terms of their respective nuclear charges with

Electronic excitations through the prism of mean-field decomposition techniques.

The potential of mean-field decomposition techniques in interpreting electronic transitions in molecules is explored, in particular, the usefulness of these for offering computational signatures of

Helical electronic transitions of spiroconjugated molecules.

The two π-systems of allene can combine into helical molecular orbitals (MOs), yet the helicity is lost in the π-π* transitions due to excited state mixing. In spiroconjugated molecules the relative

Generalization of Intrinsic Orbitals to Kramers-Paired Quaternion Spinors, Molecular Fragments, and Valence Virtual Spinors.

This paper generalizes the intrinsic atomic and bonding orbitals to relativistic applications using complex and quaternion spinors, as well as to molecular fragments instead of atomic fragments only, and shows how localized valence virtual orbitals can be expressed on this intrinsic minimal basis.

Completing density functional theory by machine learning hidden messages from molecules

This study demonstrates that the functional can be systematically constructed using accurate density distributions and energies in reference molecules via machine learning, and will help enrich the DFT framework by utilizing the rapidly advancing machine-learning technique.

Generalized Many-Body Expanded Full Configuration Interaction Theory.

It is argued that generalized MBE-FCI theory possesses an immense potential to yield near-exact correlation energies for molecular systems of unprecedented size, composition, and complexity in the years to come.

Machine learning accurate exchange and correlation functionals of the electronic density

This work proposes a framework to create density functionals using supervised machine learning, termed NeuralXC, designed to lift the accuracy of baseline functionals towards that provided by more accurate methods while maintaining their efficiency.

Quantum chemical accuracy from density functional approximations via machine learning

Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) is a standard tool in most branches of chemistry, but accuracies for many molecules are limited to 2-3 kcal ⋅ mol−1 with presently-available functionals. Ab

This work presents a high-dimensional neural network (NN) potential for water clusters based on density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, which is constructed using clusters containing up to 10 monomers and is in principle able to meet all these requirements.

Solving the electronic structure problem with machine learning

A machine-learning-based scheme to efficiently assimilate the function of the KS equation, and by-pass it to directly, rapidly, and accurately predict the electronic structure of a material or a molecule, given just its atomic configuration is introduced.

It is shown that the low dimensionality combined with careful regularisation actually leads to better transferability than the high dimensional, kernel based Gaussian Approximation Potential.

Hartree-Fock energy partitioning in terms of Hirshfeld atoms.

The atomic potential energies are found to mimic trends based on exact expressions as well as trends displayed by molecular quantities, thus lending credibility to the partitioning scheme used.

Symmetry-Adapted Machine Learning for Tensorial Properties of Atomistic Systems.

This work introduces a formalism that extends existing schemes and makes it possible to perform machine learning of tensorial properties of arbitrary rank, and for general molecular geometries, and derives a tensor kernel adapted to rotational symmetry.
