• Abstract: Machine-learning potentials provide computationally efficient and accurate approximations of the Born-Oppenheimer potential energy surface. This potential determines many materials properties and simulation techniques usually require its gradients, in particular forces and stress for molecular dynamics, and heat flux for thermal transport properties. Recently developed potentials feature high body order and can include equivariant semi-local interactions through message-passing mechanisms. Due to their complex functional forms, they rely on automatic differentiation (AD), overcoming the need for manual implementations or finite-difference schemes to evaluate gradients. This study demonstrates a unified AD approach to obtain forces, stress, and heat flux for such potentials, and provides a model-independent implementation. The method is tested on the Lennard-Jones potential, and then applied to predict cohesive properties and thermal conductivity of tin selenide using an equivariant message-passing neural network potential.

  We introduce a neuroevolution potential (NEP) trained on a dataset generated from ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. We calculate the phonon density of states (DOS) and radial distribution function (RDF) using both machine learning potentials. While the MTP potential offers slightly higher accuracy, the NEP achieves a remarkable 41-fold increase in computational speed.

  This work explores the challenging problem of molecule design by framing it as a conditional generative modeling task. We propose a novel generative model comprising three components: (1) a latent vector with a learnable prior distribution; (2) a molecule generation model based on a causal Transformer, which uses the latent vector as a prompt; and (3) a property prediction model that predicts a molecule's target properties and/or constraint values using the latent prompt.

  We propose Neural Interaction Inference with Potentials (NIIP) as an alternative approach to discover such interactions. NIIP assigns low energy to the subset of trajectories which respect the relational constraints observed. It allows trajectory manipulation, such as interchanging interaction types across separately trained models, as well as trajectory forecasting.
