Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics Simulations on NVIDIA and AMD Graphics Processing Units

Madushanka Manathunga, Hasan Metin Aktulga, Andreas W. Götz +1 more

quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) implementation on AMD GPUs. This encompasses the entire Fock matrix build and force calculation in QUICK including one-electron integrals, two-electron repulsion integrals, exchange-correlation quadrature, and linear algebra operations. General performance improvements to the QUICK GPU code are also presented. Benchmarks carried out on NVIDIA V100 and AMD MI100 cards display similar performance on both hardware for standalone HF/DFT calculations with QUICK and QM/MM molecular dynamics simulations with QUICK/AMBER. Furthermore, with respect to the QUICK/AMBER release version 21, significant speedups are observed for QM/MM molecular dynamics simulations. This significantly increases the range of scientific problems that can be addressed with open-source QM/MM software on state-of-the-art computer hardware.

A Theoretical Comparison of Quantum Mechanical Tunneling and Electromagnetic Wave Propagation Through a Barrier

N. Riga, Rebecca Seviour, Kevin L. Jensen +2 more

We present a theoretical study of the correspondence between quantum mechanics (QM) and electromagnetism (EM) using the transfer matrix approach (TMA). This analogy has been studied previously [1] , [2] , [3] ; here we adapt it to electromagnetic wave propagation through an isotropic metamaterial for comparison with quantum tunneling through a one-dimensional barrier. Wigner trajectory calculations for quantum mechanical tunneling have been developed previously [4] , [5] to present a method for modeling electron emission at an atomistic level and to allow for coupling to larger-scale particle-based simulations. To provide a means for computational verification and macroscopic experimental validation of these microscale simulations, we use the TMA to calculate both the QM and EM transmission and reflection coefficients, which enables direct comparison of the respective outputs.

Based on Quantum Mechanics Simulation of Neurons Model (QMNN)

Jincheng Zhang

This paper introduces the Quantum Mechanics Simulation of Neurons Model (QMNN), a novel approach to simulating neuronal behavior based on fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. Traditional artificial neural networks (ANNs) often struggle to accurately replicate the complex dynamics observed in biological neurons due to their reliance on classical computational methods. QMNN leverages concepts such as superposition and entanglement, key features of quantum mechanics, to represent neuronal states and interactions. The model employs a discrete quantum system, where neuronal activity is represented by quantum states, allowing for inherent parallelism and potentially capturing phenomena currently inaccessible to classical neural simulations. This work details the core concepts of QMNN, outlining its mathematical formulation, key components, and potential advantages over conventional ANN approaches. We present a simplified model of a single neuron utilizing a quantum bit (qubit) to represent its state. The model's equations reflect the Schrödinger equation and the evolution of quantum states under influence of external stimuli. The simulation explores scenarios demonstrating the potential for increased computational efficiency and the ability to model phenomena like quantum coherence within neuronal networks. Further research will focus on scaling the model to multi-neuron networks and investigating the model's applicability to various neurological conditions.
