Quantum mechanical inspired factorization of the molecule pair propagator in theories of diffusion-influenced reactions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Building on mathematical similarities between quantum mechanics and theories of diffusion-influenced reactions, we discuss how the propagator of a reacting molecule pair can be represented as a product of three factors in the Laplace domain. This representation offers several advantages. First, the full propagator can be calculated without ever having to solve the corresponding partial differential equation or path integral. Second, the representation is quite general and capable of capturing not only the classical Smoluchowski-Collins-Kimball model, but also alternative theories, as is here exemplified by the case of a deltaand step-function potential in one and two dimensions, respectively. Third, the three factors correspond to physical quantities that feature prominently in stochastic spatially-resolved simulation algorithms and hence the interpretation of current and the design of future algorithms may benefit. Finally, the representation may serve as a suitable starting point for numerical approximations that could be employed to enhance the efficiency of stochastic simulations.

Unified path integral approach to theories of diffusion-influenced reactions.
Building on mathematical similarities between quantum mechanics and theories of diffusion-influenced reactions, we develop a general approach for computational modeling of diffusion-influenced reactions that is capable of capturing not only the classical Smoluchowski picture but also alternative theories, as is here exemplified by a volume reactivity model. In particular, we prove the path deco...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanical Study of the Structure, NBO and HOMO–LUMO Analysis of Molecule Oxaliplatinium
Oxaliplatinium is an anticancer drug, used in chemotherapy. To investigate the oxaliplatinium structure based on frontier orbital analysis, thermodynamic analysis and natural bond orbital (NBO) theory is the main objective of the present research. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that charge transfer occurs within molecule. The NBO charges, the values of electric dipole moment (µ) of ...
متن کاملFrom torsion theories to closure operators and factorization systems
Torsion theories are here extended to categories equipped with an ideal of 'null morphisms', or equivalently a full subcategory of 'null objects'. Instances of this extension include closure operators viewed as generalised torsion theories in a 'category of pairs', and factorization systems viewed as torsion theories in a category of morphisms. The first point has essentially been treated in [15].

متن کاملVoltage-Controlled Entanglement between Quantum- Dot Molecule and its Spontaneous Emission Fields via Quantum Entropy
The time evolution of the quantum entropy in a coherently driven threelevel quantum dot (QD) molecule is investigated. The entanglement of quantum dot molecule and its spontaneous emission field is coherently controlled by the gat voltage and the intensity of applied field. It is shown that the degree of entanglement between a three-level quantum dot molecule and its spontaneous emission fields...
