Quantum-classical molecular dynamics, as a partial classical limit of the full quantum Schrodinger equation, is a widely used framework for quantum molecular dynamics. The underlying equations are nonlinear in nature, containing a quantum part (represents the electrons) and a classical part (stands for the nuclei). An accurate simulation of the wave function typically requires a time step comparable to the rescaled Planck constant $h$, resulting in a formidable cost when $hll 1$. We prove an additive observable error bound of Schwartz observables for the proposed time-splitting schemes based on semiclassical analysis, which decreases as $h$ becomes smaller. Furthermore, we establish a uniform-in-$h$ observable error bound, which allows an $mathcal{O}(1)$ time step to accurately capture the physical observable regardless of the size of $h$. Numerical results verify our estimates.

The extended Lagrangian molecular dynamics (XLMD) method provides a useful framework for reducing the computational cost of a class of molecular dynamics simulations with constrained latent variables. The XLMD method relaxes the constraints by introd ucing a fictitious mass $varepsilon$ for the latent variables, solving a set of singularly perturbed ordinary differential equations. While favorable numerical performance of XLMD has been demonstrated in several different contexts in the past decade, mathematical analysis of the method remains scarce. We propose the first error analysis of the XLMD method in the context of a classical polarizable force field model. While the dynamics with respect to the atomic degrees of freedom are general and nonlinear, the key mathematical simplification of the polarizable force field model is that the constraints on the latent variables are given by a linear system of equations. We prove that when the initial value of the latent variables is compatible in a sense that we define, XLMD converges as the fictitious mass $varepsilon$ is made small with $mathcal{O}(varepsilon)$ error for the atomic degrees of freedom and with $mathcal{O}(sqrt{varepsilon})$ error for the latent variables, when the dimension of the latent variable $d$ is 1. Furthermore, when the initial value of the latent variables is improved to be optimally compatible in a certain sense, we prove that the convergence rate can be improved to $mathcal{O}(varepsilon)$ for the latent variables as well. Numerical results verify that both estimates are sharp not only for $d =1$, but also for arbitrary $d$. In the setting of general $d$, we do obtain convergence, but with the non-sharp rate of $mathcal{O}(sqrt{varepsilon})$ for both the atomic and latent variables.
Dynamical spectral estimation is a well-established numerical approach for estimating eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Markov transition operator from trajectory data. Although the approach has been widely applied in biomolecular simulations, it s error properties remain poorly understood. Here we analyze the error of a dynamical spectral estimation method called the variational approach to conformational dynamics (VAC). We bound the approximation error and estimation error for VAC estimates. Our analysis establishes VACs convergence properties and suggests new strategies for tuning VAC to improve accuracy.
We analyze the Lanczos method for matrix function approximation (Lanczos-FA), an iterative algorithm for computing $f(mathbf{A}) mathbf{b}$ when $mathbf{A}$ is a Hermitian matrix and $mathbf{b}$ is a given mathbftor. Assuming that $f : mathbb{C} righ tarrow mathbb{C}$ is piecewise analytic, we give a framework, based on the Cauchy integral formula, which can be used to derive {em a priori} and emph{a posteriori} error bounds for Lanczos-FA in terms of the error of Lanczos used to solve linear systems. Unlike many error bounds for Lanczos-FA, these bounds account for fine-grained properties of the spectrum of $mathbf{A}$, such as clustered or isolated eigenvalues. Our results are derived assuming exact arithmetic, but we show that they are easily extended to finite precision computations using existing theory about the Lanczos algorithm in finite precision. We also provide generalized bounds for the Lanczos method used to approximate quadratic forms $mathbf{b}^textsf{H} f(mathbf{A}) mathbf{b}$, and demonstrate the effectiveness of our bounds with numerical experiments.
Due to their importance in both data analysis and numerical algorithms, low rank approximations have recently been widely studied. They enable the handling of very large matrices. Tight error bounds for the computationally efficient Gaussian eliminat ion based methods (skeleton approximations) are available. In practice, these bounds are useful for matrices with singular values which decrease quickly. Using the Chebyshev norm, this paper provides improved bounds for the errors of the matrix elements. These bounds are substantially better in the practically relevant cases where the eigenvalues decrease polynomially. Results are proven for general real rectangular matrices. Even stronger bounds are obtained for symmetric positive definite matrices. A simple example is given, comparing these new bounds to earlier ones.
We analyze the qualitative properties and the order of convergence of a splitting scheme for a class of nonlinear stochastic Schrodinger equations driven by additive It^o noise. The class of nonlinearities of interest includes nonlocal interaction cu bic nonlinearities. We show that the numerical solution is symplectic and preserves the expected mass for all times. On top of that, for the convergence analysis, some exponential moment bounds for the exact and numerical solutions are proved. This enables us to provide strong orders of convergence as well as orders of convergence in probability and almost surely. Finally, extensive numerical experiments illustrate the performance of the proposed numerical scheme.
