\subsection{\label{introSection:newtonian}Newtonian Mechanics} |
18 |
+ |
The discovery of Newton's three laws of mechanics which govern the |
19 |
+ |
motion of particles is the foundation of the classical mechanics. |
20 |
+ |
Newton¡¯s first law defines a class of inertial frames. Inertial |
21 |
+ |
frames are reference frames where a particle not interacting with |
22 |
+ |
other bodies will move with constant speed in the same direction. |
23 |
+ |
With respect to inertial frames Newton¡¯s second law has the form |
24 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
25 |
+ |
F = \frac {dp}{dt} = \frac {mv}{dt} |
26 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:newtonSecondLaw} |
27 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
28 |
+ |
A point mass interacting with other bodies moves with the |
29 |
+ |
acceleration along the direction of the force acting on it. Let |
30 |
+ |
$F_ij$ be the force that particle $i$ exerts on particle $j$, and |
31 |
+ |
$F_ji$ be the force that particle $j$ exerts on particle $i$. |
32 |
+ |
Newton¡¯s third law states that |
33 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
34 |
+ |
F_ij = -F_ji |
35 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:newtonThirdLaw} |
36 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
37 |
|
|
38 |
+ |
Conservation laws of Newtonian Mechanics play very important roles |
39 |
+ |
in solving mechanics problems. The linear momentum of a particle is |
40 |
+ |
conserved if it is free or it experiences no force. The second |
41 |
+ |
conservation theorem concerns the angular momentum of a particle. |
42 |
+ |
The angular momentum $L$ of a particle with respect to an origin |
43 |
+ |
from which $r$ is measured is defined to be |
44 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
45 |
+ |
L \equiv r \times p \label{introEquation:angularMomentumDefinition} |
46 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
47 |
+ |
The torque $\tau$ with respect to the same origin is defined to be |
48 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
49 |
+ |
N \equiv r \times F \label{introEquation:torqueDefinition} |
50 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
51 |
+ |
Differentiating Eq.~\ref{introEquation:angularMomentumDefinition}, |
52 |
+ |
\[ |
53 |
+ |
\dot L = \frac{d}{{dt}}(r \times p) = (\dot r \times p) + (r \times |
54 |
+ |
\dot p) |
55 |
+ |
\] |
56 |
+ |
since |
57 |
+ |
\[ |
58 |
+ |
\dot r \times p = \dot r \times mv = m\dot r \times \dot r \equiv 0 |
59 |
+ |
\] |
60 |
+ |
thus, |
61 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
62 |
+ |
\dot L = r \times \dot p = N |
63 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
64 |
+ |
If there are no external torques acting on a body, the angular |
65 |
+ |
momentum of it is conserved. The last conservation theorem state |
66 |
+ |
that if all forces are conservative, Energy |
67 |
+ |
\begin{equation}E = T + V \label{introEquation:energyConservation} |
68 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
69 |
+ |
is conserved. All of these conserved quantities are |
70 |
+ |
important factors to determine the quality of numerical integration |
71 |
+ |
scheme for rigid body \cite{Dullweber1997}. |

Newtonian Mechanics suffers from two important limitations: it |

Hamilton introduced the dynamical principle upon which it is |
93 |
|
The actual trajectory, along which a dynamical system may move from |
94 |
|
one point to another within a specified time, is derived by finding |

the path which minimizes the time integral of the difference between |
96 |

For a holonomic system of $f$ degrees of freedom, the equations of |

Eq.~\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianCoordinate} and |

Eq.~\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianMomentum} are Hamilton's |

equation of motion. Due to their symmetrical formula, they are also |

|
An important difference between Lagrangian approach and the |
195 |
|
Hamiltonian approach is that the Lagrangian is considered to be a |
200 |
|
appropriate for application to statistical mechanics and quantum |

mechanics, since it treats the coordinate and its time derivative as |

\subsection{\label{introSection:ensemble}Phase Space and Ensemble} |
228 |
> |
|
229 |
> |
Mathematically, phase space is the space which represents all |
230 |
> |
possible states. Each possible state of the system corresponds to |
231 |
> |
one unique point in the phase space. For mechanical systems, the |
232 |
> |
phase space usually consists of all possible values of position and |
233 |
> |
momentum variables. Consider a dynamic system in a cartesian space, |
234 |
> |
where each of the $6f$ coordinates and momenta is assigned to one of |
235 |
> |
$6f$ mutually orthogonal axes, the phase space of this system is a |
236 |
> |
$6f$ dimensional space. A point, $x = (q_1 , \ldots ,q_f ,p_1 , |
237 |
> |
\ldots ,p_f )$, with a unique set of values of $6f$ coordinates and |
238 |
> |
momenta is a phase space vector. |
239 |
> |
|
240 |
> |
A microscopic state or microstate of a classical system is |
241 |
> |
specification of the complete phase space vector of a system at any |
242 |
> |
instant in time. An ensemble is defined as a collection of systems |
243 |
> |
sharing one or more macroscopic characteristics but each being in a |
244 |
> |
unique microstate. The complete ensemble is specified by giving all |
245 |
> |
systems or microstates consistent with the common macroscopic |
246 |
> |
characteristics of the ensemble. Although the state of each |
247 |
> |
individual system in the ensemble could be precisely described at |
248 |
> |
any instance in time by a suitable phase space vector, when using |
249 |
> |
ensembles for statistical purposes, there is no need to maintain |
250 |
> |
distinctions between individual systems, since the numbers of |
251 |
> |
systems at any time in the different states which correspond to |
252 |
> |
different regions of the phase space are more interesting. Moreover, |
253 |
> |
in the point of view of statistical mechanics, one would prefer to |
254 |
> |
use ensembles containing a large enough population of separate |
255 |
> |
members so that the numbers of systems in such different states can |
256 |
> |
be regarded as changing continuously as we traverse different |
257 |
> |
regions of the phase space. The condition of an ensemble at any time |
258 |
> |
can be regarded as appropriately specified by the density $\rho$ |
259 |
> |
with which representative points are distributed over the phase |
260 |
> |
space. The density of distribution for an ensemble with $f$ degrees |
261 |
> |
of freedom is defined as, |
262 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
263 |
> |
\rho = \rho (q_1 , \ldots ,q_f ,p_1 , \ldots ,p_f ,t). |
264 |
> |
\label{introEquation:densityDistribution} |
265 |
> |
\end{equation} |
266 |
> |
Governed by the principles of mechanics, the phase points change |
267 |
> |
their value which would change the density at any time at phase |
268 |
> |
space. Hence, the density of distribution is also to be taken as a |
269 |
> |
function of the time. |
270 |
> |
|
271 |
> |
The number of systems $\delta N$ at time $t$ can be determined by, |
272 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
273 |
> |
\delta N = \rho (q,p,t)dq_1 \ldots dq_f dp_1 \ldots dp_f. |
274 |
> |
\label{introEquation:deltaN} |
275 |
> |
\end{equation} |
276 |
> |
Assuming a large enough population of systems are exploited, we can |
277 |
> |
sufficiently approximate $\delta N$ without introducing |
278 |
> |
discontinuity when we go from one region in the phase space to |
279 |
> |
another. By integrating over the whole phase space, |
280 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
281 |
> |
N = \int { \ldots \int {\rho (q,p,t)dq_1 } ...dq_f dp_1 } ...dp_f |
282 |
> |
\label{introEquation:totalNumberSystem} |
283 |
> |
\end{equation} |
284 |
> |
gives us an expression for the total number of the systems. Hence, |
285 |
> |
the probability per unit in the phase space can be obtained by, |
286 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
287 |
> |
\frac{{\rho (q,p,t)}}{N} = \frac{{\rho (q,p,t)}}{{\int { \ldots \int |
288 |

{\rho (q,p,t)dq_1 } ...dq_f dp_1 } ...dp_f }}. |
289 |

\label{introEquation:unitProbability} |
290 |

\end{equation} |
291 |
> |
With the help of Equation(\ref{introEquation:unitProbability}) and |
292 |
> |
the knowledge of the system, it is possible to calculate the average |
293 |

value of any desired quantity which depends on the coordinates and |
294 |

momenta of the system. Even when the dynamics of the real system is |

complex, or stochastic, or even discontinuous, the average |
296 |

properties of the ensemble of possibilities as a whole may still |
297 |

remain well defined. For a classical system in thermal equilibrium |
298 |

with its environment, the ensemble average of a mechanical quantity, |

$\langle A(q , p) \rangle_t$, takes the form of an integral over the |
300 |

phase space of the system, |
301 |

\begin{equation} |
302 |

\langle A(q , p) \rangle_t = \frac{{\int { \ldots \int {A(q,p)\rho |

There are several different types of ensembles with different |

As an ensemble of systems, each of which is known to be thermally |

by the partition function, |

Here, $A$ is the Helmholtz free energy which is defined as $ A = U - |

TS$. Since most experiment are carried out under constant pressure |

condition, isothermal-isobaric ensemble(NPT) play a very important |

role in molecular simulation. The isothermal-isobaric ensemble allow |

the system to exchange energy with a heat bath of temperature $T$ |
334 |

and to change the volume as well. Its partition function is given as |

\Delta (N,P,T) = - e^{\beta G}. |

\subsection{\label{introSection:liouville}Liouville's theorem} |
342 |
+ |
|
343 |
+ |
The Liouville's theorem is the foundation on which statistical |
344 |
+ |
mechanics rests. It describes the time evolution of phase space |
345 |
+ |
distribution function. In order to calculate the rate of change of |
346 |
+ |
$\rho$, we begin from Equation(\ref{introEquation:deltaN}). If we |
347 |
+ |
consider the two faces perpendicular to the $q_1$ axis, which are |
348 |
+ |
located at $q_1$ and $q_1 + \delta q_1$, the number of phase points |
349 |
+ |
leaving the opposite face is given by the expression, |
350 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
351 |
+ |
\left( {\rho + \frac{{\partial \rho }}{{\partial q_1 }}\delta q_1 } |
352 |
+ |
\right)\left( {\dot q_1 + \frac{{\partial \dot q_1 }}{{\partial q_1 |
353 |
+ |
}}\delta q_1 } \right)\delta q_2 \ldots \delta q_f \delta p_1 |
354 |
+ |
\ldots \delta p_f . |
355 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
356 |
+ |
Summing all over the phase space, we obtain |
357 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
358 |
+ |
\frac{{d(\delta N)}}{{dt}} = - \sum\limits_{i = 1}^f {\left[ {\rho |
359 |
+ |
\left( {\frac{{\partial \dot q_i }}{{\partial q_i }} + |
360 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial \dot p_i }}{{\partial p_i }}} \right) + \left( |
361 |
+ |
{\frac{{\partial \rho }}{{\partial q_i }}\dot q_i + \frac{{\partial |
362 |
+ |
\rho }}{{\partial p_i }}\dot p_i } \right)} \right]} \delta q_1 |
363 |
+ |
\ldots \delta q_f \delta p_1 \ldots \delta p_f . |
364 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
365 |
+ |
Differentiating the equations of motion in Hamiltonian formalism |
366 |
+ |
(\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianCoordinate}, |
367 |
+ |
\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianMomentum}), we can show, |
368 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
369 |
+ |
\sum\limits_i {\left( {\frac{{\partial \dot q_i }}{{\partial q_i }} |
370 |
+ |
+ \frac{{\partial \dot p_i }}{{\partial p_i }}} \right)} = 0 , |
371 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
372 |
+ |
which cancels the first terms of the right hand side. Furthermore, |
373 |
+ |
divining $ \delta q_1 \ldots \delta q_f \delta p_1 \ldots \delta |
374 |
+ |
p_f $ in both sides, we can write out Liouville's theorem in a |
375 |
+ |
simple form, |
376 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
377 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial \rho }}{{\partial t}} + \sum\limits_{i = 1}^f |
378 |
+ |
{\left( {\frac{{\partial \rho }}{{\partial q_i }}\dot q_i + |
379 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial \rho }}{{\partial p_i }}\dot p_i } \right)} = 0 . |
380 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:liouvilleTheorem} |
381 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
382 |
+ |
|
383 |
+ |
Liouville's theorem states that the distribution function is |
384 |
+ |
constant along any trajectory in phase space. In classical |
385 |
+ |
statistical mechanics, since the number of particles in the system |
386 |
+ |
is huge, we may be able to believe the system is stationary, |
387 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
388 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial \rho }}{{\partial t}} = 0. |
389 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:stationary} |
390 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
391 |
+ |
In such stationary system, the density of distribution $\rho$ can be |
392 |
+ |
connected to the Hamiltonian $H$ through Maxwell-Boltzmann |
393 |
+ |
distribution, |
394 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
395 |
+ |
\rho \propto e^{ - \beta H} |
396 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:densityAndHamiltonian} |
397 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
398 |
+ |
|
399 |
+ |
Liouville's theorem can be expresses in a variety of different forms |
400 |
+ |
which are convenient within different contexts. For any two function |
401 |
+ |
$F$ and $G$ of the coordinates and momenta of a system, the Poisson |
402 |
+ |
bracket ${F, G}$ is defined as |
403 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
404 |
+ |
\left\{ {F,G} \right\} = \sum\limits_i {\left( {\frac{{\partial |
405 |
+ |
F}}{{\partial q_i }}\frac{{\partial G}}{{\partial p_i }} - |
406 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial F}}{{\partial p_i }}\frac{{\partial G}}{{\partial |
407 |
+ |
q_i }}} \right)}. |
408 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:poissonBracket} |
409 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
410 |
+ |
Substituting equations of motion in Hamiltonian formalism( |
411 |
+ |
\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianCoordinate} , |
412 |
+ |
\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianMomentum} ) into |
413 |
+ |
(\ref{introEquation:liouvilleTheorem}), we can rewrite Liouville's |
414 |
+ |
theorem using Poisson bracket notion, |
415 |

Moreover, the Liouville operator is defined as |

iL = \sum\limits_{i = 1}^f {\left( {\frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial |

\subsection{\label{introSection:ergodic}The Ergodic Hypothesis} |
436 |
|
|
437 |
+ |
Various thermodynamic properties can be calculated from Molecular |
438 |
+ |
Dynamics simulation. By comparing experimental values with the |
439 |
+ |
calculated properties, one can determine the accuracy of the |
440 |
+ |
simulation and the quality of the underlying model. However, both of |
441 |
+ |
experiment and computer simulation are usually performed during a |
442 |
+ |
certain time interval and the measurements are averaged over a |
443 |
+ |
period of them which is different from the average behavior of |
444 |
+ |
many-body system in Statistical Mechanics. Fortunately, Ergodic |
445 |
+ |
Hypothesis is proposed to make a connection between time average and |
446 |
+ |
ensemble average. It states that time average and average over the |
447 |
+ |
statistical ensemble are identical \cite{Frenkel1996, leach01:mm}. |
448 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
449 |
+ |
\langle A(q , p) \rangle_t = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to \infty } |
450 |
+ |
\frac{1}{t}\int\limits_0^t {A(q(t),p(t))dt = \int\limits_\Gamma |
451 |
+ |
{A(q(t),p(t))} } \rho (q(t), p(t)) dqdp |
452 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
453 |
+ |
where $\langle A(q , p) \rangle_t$ is an equilibrium value of a |
454 |
+ |
physical quantity and $\rho (p(t), q(t))$ is the equilibrium |
455 |
+ |
distribution function. If an observation is averaged over a |
456 |
+ |
sufficiently long time (longer than relaxation time), all accessible |
457 |
+ |
microstates in phase space are assumed to be equally probed, giving |
458 |
+ |
a properly weighted statistical average. This allows the researcher |
459 |
+ |
freedom of choice when deciding how best to measure a given |
460 |
+ |
observable. In case an ensemble averaged approach sounds most |
461 |
+ |
reasonable, the Monte Carlo techniques\cite{metropolis:1949} can be |
462 |
+ |
utilized. Or if the system lends itself to a time averaging |
463 |
+ |
approach, the Molecular Dynamics techniques in |
464 |
+ |
Sec.~\ref{introSection:molecularDynamics} will be the best |
465 |
+ |
choice\cite{Frenkel1996}. |

\section{\label{introSection:geometricIntegratos}Geometric Integrators} |
468 |
+ |
A variety of numerical integrators were proposed to simulate the |
469 |
+ |
motions. They usually begin with an initial conditionals and move |
470 |
+ |
the objects in the direction governed by the differential equations. |
471 |
+ |
However, most of them ignore the hidden physical law contained |
472 |
+ |
within the equations. Since 1990, geometric integrators, which |
473 |
+ |
preserve various phase-flow invariants such as symplectic structure, |
474 |
+ |
volume and time reversal symmetry, are developed to address this |
475 |
+ |
issue. The velocity verlet method, which happens to be a simple |
476 |
+ |
example of symplectic integrator, continues to gain its popularity |
477 |
+ |
in molecular dynamics community. This fact can be partly explained |
478 |
+ |
by its geometric nature. |

\subsection{\label{introSection:symplecticManifold}Symplectic Manifold} |
481 |
+ |
A \emph{manifold} is an abstract mathematical space. It locally |
482 |
+ |
looks like Euclidean space, but when viewed globally, it may have |
483 |
+ |
more complicate structure. A good example of manifold is the surface |
484 |
+ |
of Earth. It seems to be flat locally, but it is round if viewed as |
485 |
+ |
a whole. A \emph{differentiable manifold} (also known as |
486 |
+ |
\emph{smooth manifold}) is a manifold with an open cover in which |
487 |
+ |
the covering neighborhoods are all smoothly isomorphic to one |
488 |
+ |
another. In other words,it is possible to apply calculus on |
489 |
+ |
\emph{differentiable manifold}. A \emph{symplectic manifold} is |
490 |
+ |
defined as a pair $(M, \omega)$ which consisting of a |
491 |
+ |
\emph{differentiable manifold} $M$ and a close, non-degenerated, |
492 |
+ |
bilinear symplectic form, $\omega$. A symplectic form on a vector |
493 |
+ |
space $V$ is a function $\omega(x, y)$ which satisfies |
494 |
+ |
$\omega(\lambda_1x_1+\lambda_2x_2, y) = \lambda_1\omega(x_1, y)+ |
495 |
+ |
\lambda_2\omega(x_2, y)$, $\omega(x, y) = - \omega(y, x)$ and |
496 |
+ |
$\omega(x, x) = 0$. Cross product operation in vector field is an |
497 |
+ |
example of symplectic form. |
498 |
+ |
|
499 |
+ |
One of the motivations to study \emph{symplectic manifold} in |
500 |
+ |
Hamiltonian Mechanics is that a symplectic manifold can represent |
501 |
+ |
all possible configurations of the system and the phase space of the |
502 |
+ |
system can be described by it's cotangent bundle. Every symplectic |
503 |
+ |
manifold is even dimensional. For instance, in Hamilton equations, |
504 |
+ |
coordinate and momentum always appear in pairs. |
505 |
+ |
|
506 |
+ |
Let $(M,\omega)$ and $(N, \eta)$ be symplectic manifolds. A map |
507 |
+ |
\[ |
508 |
+ |
f : M \rightarrow N |
509 |
+ |
\] |
510 |
+ |
is a \emph{symplectomorphism} if it is a \emph{diffeomorphims} and |
511 |
+ |
the \emph{pullback} of $\eta$ under f is equal to $\omega$. |
512 |
+ |
Canonical transformation is an example of symplectomorphism in |
513 |
+ |
classical mechanics. |

\subsection{\label{introSection:ODE}Ordinary Differential Equations} |
516 |
+ |
|
517 |
+ |
For a ordinary differential system defined as |
518 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
519 |
+ |
\dot x = f(x) |
520 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
521 |
+ |
where $x = x(q,p)^T$, this system is canonical Hamiltonian, if |
522 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
523 |
+ |
f(r) = J\nabla _x H(r). |
524 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
525 |
+ |
$H = H (q, p)$ is Hamiltonian function and $J$ is the skew-symmetric |
526 |
+ |
matrix |
527 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
528 |
+ |
J = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} |
529 |
+ |
0 & I \\ |
530 |
+ |
{ - I} & 0 \\ |
531 |
+ |
\end{array}} \right) |
532 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:canonicalMatrix} |
533 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
534 |
+ |
where $I$ is an identity matrix. Using this notation, Hamiltonian |
535 |
+ |
system can be rewritten as, |
536 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
537 |
+ |
\frac{d}{{dt}}x = J\nabla _x H(x) |
538 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:compactHamiltonian} |
539 |
+ |
\end{equation}In this case, $f$ is |
540 |
+ |
called a \emph{Hamiltonian vector field}. |
541 |
+ |
|
542 |
+ |
Another generalization of Hamiltonian dynamics is Poisson Dynamics, |
543 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
544 |
+ |
\dot x = J(x)\nabla _x H \label{introEquation:poissonHamiltonian} |
545 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
546 |
+ |
The most obvious change being that matrix $J$ now depends on $x$. |
547 |
+ |
The free rigid body is an example of Poisson system (actually a |
548 |
+ |
Lie-Poisson system) with Hamiltonian function of angular kinetic |
549 |
+ |
energy. |
550 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
551 |
+ |
J(\pi ) = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} |
552 |
+ |
0 & {\pi _3 } & { - \pi _2 } \\ |
553 |
+ |
{ - \pi _3 } & 0 & {\pi _1 } \\ |
554 |
+ |
{\pi _2 } & { - \pi _1 } & 0 \\ |
555 |
+ |
\end{array}} \right) |
556 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
557 |
+ |
|
558 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
559 |
+ |
H = \frac{1}{2}\left( {\frac{{\pi _1^2 }}{{I_1 }} + \frac{{\pi _2^2 |
560 |
+ |
}}{{I_2 }} + \frac{{\pi _3^2 }}{{I_3 }}} \right) |
561 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
562 |
+ |
|
563 |
+ |
\subsection{\label{introSection:geometricProperties}Geometric Properties} |
564 |
+ |
Let $x(t)$ be the exact solution of the ODE system, |
565 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
566 |
+ |
\frac{{dx}}{{dt}} = f(x) \label{introEquation:ODE} |
567 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
568 |
+ |
The exact flow(solution) $\varphi_\tau$ is defined by |
569 |
+ |
\[ |
570 |
+ |
x(t+\tau) =\varphi_\tau(x(t)) |
571 |
+ |
\] |
572 |
+ |
where $\tau$ is a fixed time step and $\varphi$ is a map from phase |
573 |
+ |
space to itself. In most cases, it is not easy to find the exact |
574 |
+ |
flow $\varphi_\tau$. Instead, we use a approximate map, $\psi_\tau$, |
575 |
+ |
which is usually called integrator. The order of an integrator |
576 |
+ |
$\psi_\tau$ is $p$, if the Taylor series of $\psi_\tau$ agree to |
577 |
+ |
order $p$, |
578 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
579 |
+ |
\psi_tau(x) = x + \tau f(x) + O(\tau^{p+1}) |
580 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
581 |
+ |
|
582 |
+ |
The hidden geometric properties of ODE and its flow play important |
583 |
+ |
roles in numerical studies. Let $\varphi$ be the flow of Hamiltonian |
584 |
+ |
vector field, $\varphi$ is a \emph{symplectic} flow if it satisfies, |
585 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
586 |
+ |
'\varphi^T J '\varphi = J. |
587 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
588 |
+ |
According to Liouville's theorem, the symplectic volume is invariant |
589 |
+ |
under a Hamiltonian flow, which is the basis for classical |
590 |
+ |
statistical mechanics. Furthermore, the flow of a Hamiltonian vector |
591 |
+ |
field on a symplectic manifold can be shown to be a |
592 |
+ |
symplectomorphism. As to the Poisson system, |
593 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
594 |
+ |
'\varphi ^T J '\varphi = J \circ \varphi |
595 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
596 |
+ |
is the property must be preserved by the integrator. It is possible |
597 |
+ |
to construct a \emph{volume-preserving} flow for a source free($ |
598 |
+ |
\nabla \cdot f = 0 $) ODE, if the flow satisfies $ \det d\varphi = |
599 |
+ |
1$. Changing the variables $y = h(x)$ in a |
600 |
+ |
ODE\ref{introEquation:ODE} will result in a new system, |
601 |
+ |
\[ |
602 |
+ |
\dot y = \tilde f(y) = ((dh \cdot f)h^{ - 1} )(y). |
603 |
+ |
\] |
604 |
+ |
The vector filed $f$ has reversing symmetry $h$ if $f = - \tilde f$. |
605 |
+ |
In other words, the flow of this vector field is reversible if and |
606 |
+ |
only if $ h \circ \varphi ^{ - 1} = \varphi \circ h $. When |
607 |
+ |
designing any numerical methods, one should always try to preserve |
608 |
+ |
the structural properties of the original ODE and its flow. |
609 |
+ |
|
610 |
+ |
\subsection{\label{introSection:constructionSymplectic}Construction of Symplectic Methods} |
611 |
+ |
A lot of well established and very effective numerical methods have |
612 |
+ |
been successful precisely because of their symplecticities even |
613 |
+ |
though this fact was not recognized when they were first |
614 |
+ |
constructed. The most famous example is leapfrog methods in |
615 |
+ |
molecular dynamics. In general, symplectic integrators can be |
616 |
+ |
constructed using one of four different methods. |
617 |
+ |
\begin{enumerate} |
618 |
+ |
\item Generating functions |
619 |
+ |
\item Variational methods |
620 |
+ |
\item Runge-Kutta methods |
621 |
+ |
\item Splitting methods |
622 |
+ |
\end{enumerate} |
623 |
+ |
|
624 |
+ |
Generating function tends to lead to methods which are cumbersome |
625 |
+ |
and difficult to use\cite{}. In dissipative systems, variational |
626 |
+ |
methods can capture the decay of energy accurately\cite{}. Since |
627 |
+ |
their geometrically unstable nature against non-Hamiltonian |
628 |
+ |
perturbations, ordinary implicit Runge-Kutta methods are not |
629 |
+ |
suitable for Hamiltonian system. Recently, various high-order |
630 |
+ |
explicit Runge--Kutta methods have been developed to overcome this |
631 |
+ |
instability \cite{}. However, due to computational penalty involved |
632 |
+ |
in implementing the Runge-Kutta methods, they do not attract too |
633 |
+ |
much attention from Molecular Dynamics community. Instead, splitting |
634 |
+ |
have been widely accepted since they exploit natural decompositions |
635 |
+ |
of the system\cite{Tuckerman92}. The main idea behind splitting |
636 |
+ |
methods is to decompose the discrete $\varphi_h$ as a composition of |
637 |
+ |
simpler flows, |
638 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
639 |
+ |
\varphi _h = \varphi _{h_1 } \circ \varphi _{h_2 } \ldots \circ |
640 |
+ |
\varphi _{h_n } |
641 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:FlowDecomposition} |
642 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
643 |
+ |
where each of the sub-flow is chosen such that each represent a |
644 |
+ |
simpler integration of the system. Let $\phi$ and $\psi$ both be |
645 |
+ |
symplectic maps, it is easy to show that any composition of |
646 |
+ |
symplectic flows yields a symplectic map, |
647 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
648 |
+ |
(\varphi '\phi ')^T J\varphi '\phi ' = \phi '^T \varphi '^T J\varphi |
649 |
+ |
'\phi ' = \phi '^T J\phi ' = J. |
650 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:SymplecticFlowComposition} |
651 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
