Catalytic tempering: A method for sampling rough energy landscapes by Monte Carlo.
A new Monte Carlo algorithm is presented for the efficient sampling of the Boltzmann distribution of configurations of systems with rough energy landscapes. The method is based on the introduction of a fictitious coordinate y so that the dimensionality of the system is increased by one. This augmented system has a potential surface and a temperature that is made to depend on the new coordinate ...
متن کاملModeling Rough Energy Landscapes in Defected Condensed Matter
This dissertation is a computational and theoretical investigation of the behavior of defected condensed matter and its evolution over long time scales. The thesis provides original contributions to the methodology used for simulating the slow evolution of complex condensed matter, as well as applications to three problems: hydrogen embrittlement of metals, radiation swelling, and cement settin...
متن کاملSampling procedures for low temperature dynamics on complex energy landscapes
The present work deals with relaxation dynamics on complex energy landscapes. The state space of a complex system possesses, as a hallmark, the multitude of local minima separated by higher states, called barrier states. This feature gives rise to a host of non-equilibrium phenomena. From case to case, for different complex systems, ranging from atomic clusters, spin glasses and proteins to neu...
متن کاملBiased Metropolis Sampling for Rugged Free Energy Landscapes
Metropolis simulations of all-atom models of peptides (i.e. small proteins) are considered. Inspired by the funnel picture of Bryngelson and Wolyness, a transformation of the updating probabilities of the dihedral angles is defined, which uses probability densities from a higher temperature to improve the algorithmic performance at a lower temperature. The method is suitable for canonical as we...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Methods for Rough Free Energy Landscapes: Population Annealing and Parallel Tempering
Parallel tempering and population annealing are both effective methods for simulating equilibrium systems with rough free energy landscapes. Parallel tempering, also known as replica exchange Monte Carlo, is a Markov chain Monte Carlo method while population annealing is a sequential Monte Carlo method. Both methods overcome the exponential slowing associated with high free energy barriers. The...
