Machine learning models are rapidly becoming widely used to simulate complex physicochemical phenomena with ab initio accuracy. Here, we use one such model as well as direct density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the phase equilibrium of water, hexagonal ice (Ih), and cubic ice (Ic), with an eye towards studying ice nucleation. The machine learning model is based on deep neural networks and has been trained on DFT data obtained using the SCAN exchange and correlation functional. We use this model to drive enhanced sampling simulations aimed at calculating a number of complex properties that are out of reach of DFT-driven simulations and then employ an appropriate reweighting procedure to compute the corresponding properties for the SCAN functional. This approach allows us to calculate the melting temperature of both ice polymorphs, the driving force for nucleation, the heat of fusion, the densities at the melting temperature, the relative stability of ice Ih and Ic, and other properties. We find a correct qualitative prediction of all properties of interest. In some cases, quantitative agreement with experiment is better than for state-of-the-art semiempirical potentials for water. Our results also show that SCAN correctly predicts that ice Ih is more stable than ice Ic.

Among the many existing molecular models of water, the MB-pol many-body potential has emerged as a remarkably accurate model, capable of reproducing thermodynamic, structural, and dynamic properties across waters solid, liquid, and vapor phases. In t
his work, we assessed the performance of MB-pol with respect to an important set of properties related to vapor-liquid coexistence and interfacial behavior. Through direct coexistence classical molecular dynamics simulations at temperatures 400 K < T < 600 K, we calculated properties such as equilibrium coexistence densities, vapor-liquid interfacial tension, vapor pressure, and enthalpy of vaporization, and compared the MB-pol results to experimental data. We also compared rigid vs. fully flexible variants of the MB-pol model and evaluated system size effects for the properties studied. We found that the MB-pol model predictions are in good agreement with experimental data, even for temperatures approaching the vapor-liquid critical point; this agreement was largely insensitive to system size or the rigid vs. flexible treatment of the intramolecular degrees of freedom. These results attest to the chemical accuracy of MB-pol and its high degree of transferability, thus enabling MB-pols application across a large swath of waters phase diagram.
In this paper we propose a new formalism to map history-dependent metadynamics in a Markovian process. We apply this formalism to a model Langevin dynamics and determine the equilibrium distribution of a collection of simulations. We demonstrate that
the reconstructed free energy is an unbiased estimate of the underlying free energy and analytically derive an expression for the error. The present results can be applied to other history-dependent stochastic processes such as Wang-Landau sampling.
The Strongly Constrained and Appropriately Normed (SCAN) functional is a non-empirical meta-generalized-gradient approximation (meta-GGA) functional that satisfies all the known constraints that a meta-GGA functional can, but it also exhibits a great
degree of sensitivity to numerical grids. Its numerical complexities are amplified when used in Perdew-Zunger (PZ) self-interaction correction (SIC) which requires evaluating energies and potentials using orbital densities that vary far more rapidly than spin densities. Recent regularization of the SCAN functional (rSCAN) simplifies numerical complexities of SCAN at the expense of violation of some exact constraints. To develop a good understanding of the performance of rSCAN and the effect of loss of an exact constraint at the limit of slowly varying density, we have compared its performance against SCAN for vibrational frequencies, infra-red and Raman intensities of water clusters, electric dipole moments, spin magnetic moments of a few molecular magnets, weak interaction energies of dimers, barrier heights of reactions, and atomization energies for benchmark sets of molecules. Likewise, we examined the performance of SIC-rSCAN using the PZ-SIC method by studying atomic total energies, ionization potentials and electron affinities, molecular atomization energies, barrier heights, and dissociation and reaction energies. We find that rSCAN requires a much less dense numerical grid and gives very similar results as SCAN for all properties examined with the exception of atomization energies which are somewhat worse in rSCAN. On the other hand, SIC-rSCAN gives marginally better performance than SIC-SCAN for almost all properties studied in this work.
Feynman path-integral deep potential molecular dynamics (PI-DPMD) calculations have been employed to study both light (H$_2$O) and heavy water (D$_2$O) within the isothermal-isobaric ensemble. In particular, the deep neural network is trained based o
n ab initio data obtained from the strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) exchange-correlation functional. Because of the lighter mass of hydrogen than deuteron, the properties of light water is more influenced by nuclear quantum effect than those of heavy water. Clear isotope effects are observed and analyzed in terms of hydrogen-bond structure and electronic properties of water that are closely associated with experimental observables. The molecular structures of both liquid H$_2$O and D$_2$O agree well with the data extracted from scattering experiments. The delicate isotope effects on radial distribution functions and angular distribution functions are well reproduced as well. Our approach demonstrates that deep neural network combined with SCAN functional based ab initio molecular dynamics provides an accurate theoretical tool for modeling water and its isotope effects.
In this work we consider information-theoretical observables to analyze short symbolic sequences, comprising time-series that represent the orientation of a single spin in a $2D$ Ising ferromagnet on a square lattice of size $L^2=128^2$, for differen
t system temperatures $T$. The latter were chosen from an interval enclosing the critical point $T_{rm c}$ of the model. At small temperatures the sequences are thus very regular, at high temperatures they are maximally random. In the vicinity of the critical point, nontrivial, long-range correlations appear. Here, we implement estimators for the entropy rate, excess entropy (i.e. complexity) and multi-information. First, we implement a Lempel-Ziv string parsing scheme, providing seemingly elaborate entropy rate and multi-information estimates and an approximate estimator for the excess entropy. Furthermore, we apply easy-to-use black-box data compression utilities, providing approximate estimators only. For comparison and to yield results for benchmarking purposes we implement the information-theoretic observables also based on the well-established M-block Shannon entropy, which is more tedious to apply compared to the the first two algorithmic entropy estimation procedures. To test how well one can exploit the potential of such data compression techniques, we aim at detecting the critical point of the $2D$ Ising ferromagnet. Among the above observables, the multi-information, which is known to exhibit an isolated peak at the critical point, is very easy to replicate by means of both efficient algorithmic entropy estimation procedures. Finally, we assess how good the various algorithmic entropy estimates compare to the more conventional block entropy estimates and illustrate a simple modification that yields enhanced results.
