As a special discipline of molecular modeling, Molecular dynamics |

has proven to be a powerful tool for studying the functions of |

biological systems, providing structural, thermodynamic and |

Closely related to Classical Mechanics, Molecular Dynamics |
| 7 |
|
simulations are carried out by integrating the equations of motion |
| 8 |
|
for a given system of particles. There are three fundamental ideas |
| 14 |
|
when further combine with the laws of mechanics will also be |
| 15 |
|
sufficient to predict the future behavior of the system. |

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 |

\subsubsection{\label{introSection:lagrangian}Lagrangian Mechanics} |

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 |
| 76 |
|
describes their motion in special cartesian coordinate systems. |
| 77 |
|
Another limitation of Newtonian mechanics becomes obvious when we |
| 83 |
|
which arise in attempts to apply Newton's equation to complex |
| 84 |
|
system, alternative procedures may be developed. |

|
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 |
| 95 |
|
the path which minimizes the time integral of the difference between |
| 96 |
< |
the kinetic, $K$, and potential energies, $U$. |
| 96 |

the kinetic, $K$, and potential energies, $U$ \cite{tolman79}. |

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

motion in the Lagrangian form is |

\begin{equation} |

generalized velocity. |

\subsection{\label{introSection:hamiltonian}Hamiltonian Mechanics} |
| 131 |
|
|
| 132 |
|
Arising from Lagrangian Mechanics, Hamiltonian Mechanics was |
| 133 |
|
introduced by William Rowan Hamilton in 1833 as a re-formulation of |
| 138 |
|
p_i = \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot q_i} |
| 139 |
|
\label{introEquation:generalizedMomenta} |
| 140 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 141 |
< |
With the help of these momenta, we may now define a new quantity $H$ |
| 94 |
< |
by the equation |
| 141 |
> |
The Lagrange equations of motion are then expressed by |
| 142 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 143 |
< |
H = p_1 \dot q_1 + \ldots + p_f \dot q_f - L, |
| 143 |
> |
p_i = \frac{{\partial L}}{{\partial q_i }} |
| 144 |
> |
\label{introEquation:generalizedMomentaDot} |
| 145 |
> |
\end{equation} |
| 146 |
> |
|
| 147 |
> |
With the help of the generalized momenta, we may now define a new |
| 148 |
> |
quantity $H$ by the equation |
| 149 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 150 |
> |
H = \sum\limits_k {p_k \dot q_k } - L , |
| 151 |
|
\label{introEquation:hamiltonianDefByLagrangian} |
| 152 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 153 |
|
where $ \dot q_1 \ldots \dot q_f $ are generalized velocities and |
| 154 |
|
$L$ is the Lagrangian function for the system. |
| 155 |
|
|
| 156 |
+ |
Differentiating Eq.~\ref{introEquation:hamiltonianDefByLagrangian}, |
| 157 |
+ |
one can obtain |
| 158 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 159 |
+ |
dH = \sum\limits_k {\left( {p_k d\dot q_k + \dot q_k dp_k - |
| 160 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial L}}{{\partial q_k }}dq_k - \frac{{\partial |
| 161 |
+ |
L}}{{\partial \dot q_k }}d\dot q_k } \right)} - \frac{{\partial |
| 162 |
+ |
L}}{{\partial t}}dt \label{introEquation:diffHamiltonian1} |
| 163 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 164 |
+ |
Making use of Eq.~\ref{introEquation:generalizedMomenta}, the |
| 165 |
+ |
second and fourth terms in the parentheses cancel. Therefore, |
| 166 |
+ |
Eq.~\ref{introEquation:diffHamiltonian1} can be rewritten as |
| 167 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 168 |
+ |
dH = \sum\limits_k {\left( {\dot q_k dp_k - \dot p_k dq_k } |
| 169 |
+ |
\right)} - \frac{{\partial L}}{{\partial t}}dt |
| 170 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:diffHamiltonian2} |
| 171 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 172 |
+ |
By identifying the coefficients of $dq_k$, $dp_k$ and dt, we can |
| 173 |
+ |
find |
| 174 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 175 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial p_k }} = q_k |
| 176 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:motionHamiltonianCoordinate} |
| 177 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 178 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 179 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial q_k }} = - p_k |
| 180 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:motionHamiltonianMomentum} |
| 181 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 182 |
+ |
and |
| 183 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 184 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial t}} = - \frac{{\partial L}}{{\partial |
| 185 |
+ |
t}} |
| 186 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:motionHamiltonianTime} |
| 187 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 188 |
+ |
|
| 189 |
+ |
Eq.~\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianCoordinate} and |
| 190 |
+ |
Eq.~\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianMomentum} are Hamilton's |
| 191 |
+ |
equation of motion. Due to their symmetrical formula, they are also |
| 192 |
+ |
known as the canonical equations of motions \cite{Goldstein01}. |
| 193 |
+ |
|
| 194 |
|
An important difference between Lagrangian approach and the |
| 195 |
|
Hamiltonian approach is that the Lagrangian is considered to be a |
| 196 |
|
function of the generalized velocities $\dot q_i$ and the |
| 200 |
|
appropriate for application to statistical mechanics and quantum |
| 201 |
|
mechanics, since it treats the coordinate and its time derivative as |
| 202 |
|
independent variables and it only works with 1st-order differential |
| 203 |
< |
equations. |
| 203 |

equations\cite{Marion90}. |
| 204 |
|
|
| 205 |
+ |
In Newtonian Mechanics, a system described by conservative forces |
| 206 |
+ |
conserves the total energy \ref{introEquation:energyConservation}. |
| 207 |
+ |
It follows that Hamilton's equations of motion conserve the total |
| 208 |
+ |
Hamiltonian. |
| 209 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 210 |
+ |
\frac{{dH}}{{dt}} = \sum\limits_i {\left( {\frac{{\partial |
| 211 |
+ |
H}}{{\partial q_i }}\dot q_i + \frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial p_i |
| 212 |
+ |
}}\dot p_i } \right)} = \sum\limits_i {\left( {\frac{{\partial |
| 213 |
+ |
H}}{{\partial q_i }}\frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial p_i }} - |
| 214 |
+ |
\frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial p_i }}\frac{{\partial H}}{{\partial |

Mathematically, phase space is the space which represents all |

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 |

$6f$ dimensional space. A point, $x = (q_1 , \ldots ,q_f ,p_1 , |

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 |

of freedom is defined as, |

\begin{equation} |

\rho = \rho (q_1 , \ldots ,q_f ,p_1 , \ldots ,p_f ,t). |

\label{introEquation:densityDistribution} |

\end{equation} |

Governed by the principles of mechanics, the phase points change |
| 267 |

their value which would change the density at any time at phase |

space. Hence, the density of distribution is also to be taken as a |

function of the time. |

The number of systems $\delta N$ at time $t$ can be determined by, |

Assuming a large enough population of systems are exploited, we can |

sufficiently approximate $\delta N$ without introducing |

gives us an expression for the total number of the systems. Hence, |

the probability per unit in the phase space can be obtained by, |

\begin{equation} |

\frac{{\rho (q,p,t)}}{N} = \frac{{\rho (q,p,t)}}{{\int { \ldots \int |

the knowledge of the system, it is possible to calculate the average |

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

A canonical ensemble(NVT)is an ensemble of systems, each of which |

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

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

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

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

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

The Liouville's theorem is the foundation on which statistical |

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 |

Differentiating the equations of motion in Hamiltonian formalism |

\begin{equation} |

\sum\limits_i {\left( {\frac{{\partial \dot q_i }}{{\partial q_i }} |

| 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 |

{\left( {\frac{{\partial \rho }}{{\partial q_i }}\dot q_i + |

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 |

In such stationary system, the density of distribution $\rho$ can be |

If this region is small enough, the density $\rho$ can be regarded |

as uniform over the whole phase space. Thus, the number of phase |

more complicate structure. A good example of manifold is the surface |

a whole. A \emph{differentiable manifold} (also known as |

\emph{smooth manifold}) is a manifold with an open cover in which |
| 514 |

the covering neighborhoods are all smoothly isomorphic to one |
| 515 |

another. In other words,it is possible to apply calculus on |
| 516 |

\emph{differentiable manifold}. A \emph{symplectic manifold} is |

\lambda_2\omega(x_2, y)$, $\omega(x, y) = - \omega(y, x)$ and |

One of the motivations to study \emph{symplectic manifold} in |

x(t+\tau) =\varphi_\tau(x(t)) |

The hidden geometric properties of ODE and its flow play important |
| 632 |
> |
roles in numerical studies. Many of them can be found in systems |
| 633 |
> |
which occur naturally in applications. |
| 634 |
> |
|
| 635 |
> |
Let $\varphi$ be the flow of Hamiltonian vector field, $\varphi$ is |
| 636 |
> |
a \emph{symplectic} flow if it satisfies, |
| 637 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 638 |
> |
'\varphi^T J '\varphi = J. |
| 639 |
> |
\end{equation} |
| 640 |
> |
According to Liouville's theorem, the symplectic volume is invariant |
| 641 |
> |
under a Hamiltonian flow, which is the basis for classical |
| 642 |
> |
statistical mechanics. Furthermore, the flow of a Hamiltonian vector |
| 643 |
> |
field on a symplectic manifold can be shown to be a |
| 644 |
> |
symplectomorphism. As to the Poisson system, |
| 645 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 646 |
> |
'\varphi ^T J '\varphi = J \circ \varphi |
| 647 |
> |
\end{equation} |
| 648 |
> |
is the property must be preserved by the integrator. |
| 649 |
> |
|
| 650 |
> |
It is possible to construct a \emph{volume-preserving} flow for a |
| 651 |
> |
source free($ \nabla \cdot f = 0 $) ODE, if the flow satisfies $ |
| 652 |
> |
\det d\varphi = 1$. One can show easily that a symplectic flow will |
| 653 |
> |
be volume-preserving. |
| 654 |
> |
|
| 655 |
> |
Changing the variables $y = h(x)$ in a ODE\ref{introEquation:ODE} |
| 656 |
> |
will result in a new system, |
| 657 |
> |
\[ |
| 658 |
> |
\dot y = \tilde f(y) = ((dh \cdot f)h^{ - 1} )(y). |
| 659 |
> |
\] |
| 660 |
> |
The vector filed $f$ has reversing symmetry $h$ if $f = - \tilde f$. |
| 661 |
> |
In other words, the flow of this vector field is reversible if and |
| 662 |
> |
only if $ h \circ \varphi ^{ - 1} = \varphi \circ h $. |
| 663 |
> |
|
| 664 |
> |
When designing any numerical methods, one should always try to |
| 665 |
> |
preserve the structural properties of the original ODE and its flow. |
| 666 |

\subsection{\label{introSection:constructionSymplectic}Construction of Symplectic Methods} |
| 668 |
> |
A lot of well established and very effective numerical methods have |
| 669 |
> |
been successful precisely because of their symplecticities even |
| 670 |
> |
though this fact was not recognized when they were first |
| 671 |
> |
constructed. The most famous example is leapfrog methods in |
| 672 |
> |
molecular dynamics. In general, symplectic integrators can be |
| 673 |
> |
constructed using one of four different methods. |
| 674 |
> |
\begin{enumerate} |
| 675 |
> |
\item Generating functions |
| 676 |
> |
\item Variational methods |
| 677 |
> |
\item Runge-Kutta methods |
| 678 |
> |
\item Splitting methods |
| 679 |
> |
\end{enumerate} |
| 680 |
> |
|
| 681 |
> |
Generating function tends to lead to methods which are cumbersome |
| 682 |
> |
and difficult to use. In dissipative systems, variational methods |
| 683 |
> |
can capture the decay of energy accurately. Since their |
| 684 |
> |
geometrically unstable nature against non-Hamiltonian perturbations, |
| 685 |
> |
ordinary implicit Runge-Kutta methods are not suitable for |
| 686 |
> |
Hamiltonian system. Recently, various high-order explicit |
| 687 |
> |
Runge--Kutta methods have been developed to overcome this |
| 688 |
> |
instability \cite{}. However, due to computational penalty involved |
| 689 |
> |
in implementing the Runge-Kutta methods, they do not attract too |
| 690 |
> |
much attention from Molecular Dynamics community. Instead, splitting |
| 691 |
> |
have been widely accepted since they exploit natural decompositions |
| 692 |
> |
of the system\cite{Tuckerman92}. |
| 693 |
> |
|
| 694 |
> |
\subsubsection{\label{introSection:splittingMethod}Splitting Method} |
| 695 |
> |
|
| 696 |
> |
The main idea behind splitting methods is to decompose the discrete |
| 697 |
> |
$\varphi_h$ as a composition of simpler flows, |
| 698 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 699 |
> |
\varphi _h = \varphi _{h_1 } \circ \varphi _{h_2 } \ldots \circ |
| 700 |
> |
\varphi _{h_n } |
| 701 |
> |
\label{introEquation:FlowDecomposition} |
| 702 |
> |
\end{equation} |
| 703 |
> |
where each of the sub-flow is chosen such that each represent a |
| 704 |
> |
simpler integration of the system. |
| 705 |
> |
|
| 706 |
> |
Suppose that a Hamiltonian system takes the form, |
| 707 |
> |
\[ |
| 708 |
> |
H = H_1 + H_2. |
| 709 |
> |
\] |
| 710 |
> |
Here, $H_1$ and $H_2$ may represent different physical processes of |
| 711 |
> |
the system. For instance, they may relate to kinetic and potential |
| 712 |
> |
energy respectively, which is a natural decomposition of the |
| 713 |
> |
problem. If $H_1$ and $H_2$ can be integrated using exact flows |
| 714 |
> |
$\varphi_1(t)$ and $\varphi_2(t)$, respectively, a simple first |
| 715 |
> |
order is then given by the Lie-Trotter formula |
| 716 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 717 |
> |
\varphi _h = \varphi _{1,h} \circ \varphi _{2,h}, |
| 718 |
> |
\label{introEquation:firstOrderSplitting} |
| 719 |
> |
\end{equation} |
| 720 |
> |
where $\varphi _h$ is the result of applying the corresponding |
| 721 |
> |
continuous $\varphi _i$ over a time $h$. By definition, as |
| 722 |
> |
$\varphi_i(t)$ is the exact solution of a Hamiltonian system, it |
| 723 |
> |
must follow that each operator $\varphi_i(t)$ is a symplectic map. |
| 724 |
> |
It is easy to show that any composition of symplectic flows yields a |
| 725 |
> |
symplectic map, |
| 726 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 727 |
> |
(\varphi '\phi ')^T J\varphi '\phi ' = \phi '^T \varphi '^T J\varphi |
| 728 |
> |
'\phi ' = \phi '^T J\phi ' = J, |
| 729 |
> |
\label{introEquation:SymplecticFlowComposition} |
| 730 |
> |
\end{equation} |
| 731 |
> |
where $\phi$ and $\psi$ both are symplectic maps. Thus operator |
| 732 |
> |
splitting in this context automatically generates a symplectic map. |
| 733 |
> |
|
| 734 |
> |
The Lie-Trotter splitting(\ref{introEquation:firstOrderSplitting}) |
| 735 |
> |
introduces local errors proportional to $h^2$, while Strang |
| 736 |
> |
splitting gives a second-order decomposition, |
| 737 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 738 |
> |
\varphi _h = \varphi _{1,h/2} \circ \varphi _{2,h} \circ \varphi |

| 740 |
> |
\label{introEqaution:secondOrderSplitting} |
| 741 |
> |
\end{equation} |
| 742 |
> |
which has a local error proportional to $h^3$. Sprang splitting's |
| 743 |
> |
popularity in molecular simulation community attribute to its |
| 744 |
> |
symmetric property, |
| 745 |
> |
\begin{equation} |
| 746 |

\varphi _h^{ - 1} = \varphi _{ - h}. |

\subsubsection{\label{introSection:exampleSplittingMethod}Example of Splitting Method} |

The classical equation for a system consisting of interacting |
| 752 |
> |
particles can be written in Hamiltonian form, |
| 753 |
> |
\[ |
| 754 |
> |
H = T + V |
| 755 |

\] |
| 756 |

where $T$ is the kinetic energy and $V$ is the potential energy. |
| 757 |
> |
Setting $H_1 = T, H_2 = V$ and applying Strang splitting, one |
| 758 |
> |
obtains the following: |
| 759 |
> |
\begin{align} |
| 760 |
> |
q(\Delta t) &= q(0) + \dot{q}(0)\Delta t + |

\frac{F[q(0)]}{m}\frac{\Delta t^2}{2}, % |

\label{introEquation:Lp10a} \\% |

\label{introEquation:Lp10b} |
| 767 |

\end{align} |
| 768 |

where $F(t)$ is the force at time $t$. This integration scheme is |
| 769 |

known as \emph{velocity verlet} which is |
| 770 |

symplectic(\ref{introEquation:SymplecticFlowComposition}), |
| 771 |

time-reversible(\ref{introEquation:timeReversible}) and |
| 772 |

volume-preserving (\ref{introEquation:volumePreserving}). These |
| 773 |

geometric properties attribute to its long-time stability and its |
| 774 |

popularity in the community. However, the most commonly used |
| 775 |

velocity verlet integration scheme is written as below, |
| 776 |
> |
\begin{align} |
| 777 |
> |
\dot{q}\biggl (\frac{\Delta t}{2}\biggr ) &= |
| 778 |

\dot{q}(0) + \frac{\Delta t}{2m}\, F[q(0)], \label{introEquation:Lp9a}\\% |

q(\Delta t) &= q(0) + \Delta t\, \dot{q}\biggl (\frac{\Delta t}{2}\biggr ),% |

\frac{\Delta t}{2m}\, F[q(0)]. \label{introEquation:Lp9c} |
| 785 |

\end{align} |
| 786 |

From the preceding splitting, one can see that the integration of |
| 787 |

the equations of motion would follow: |
| 788 |
> |
\begin{enumerate} |
| 789 |
> |
\item calculate the velocities at the half step, $\frac{\Delta t}{2}$, from the forces calculated at the initial position. |
| 790 |

|
| 791 |

\item Use the half step velocities to move positions one whole step, $\Delta t$. |
| 792 |

|
| 793 |

\item Evaluate the forces at the new positions, $\mathbf{r}(\Delta t)$, and use the new forces to complete the velocity move. |
| 794 |

|
| 795 |

\item Repeat from step 1 with the new position, velocities, and forces assuming the roles of the initial values. |
| 796 |

\end{enumerate} |
| 797 |

|
| 798 |

Simply switching the order of splitting and composing, a new |

integrator, the \emph{position verlet} integrator, can be generated, |
| 800 |

\begin{align} |

\dot q(\Delta t) &= \dot q(0) + \Delta tF(q(0))\left[ {q(0) + |

Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula can be used to determine the local |

error of splitting method in terms of commutator of the |

operators(\ref{introEquation:exponentialOperator}) associated with |

the sub-flow. For operators $hX$ and $hY$ which are associate to |

Here, $[X,Y]$ is the commutators of operator $X$ and $Y$ given by |

[X,Y] = XY - YX . |

Applying Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula to Sprang splitting, we |

can obtain |

\begin{eqnarray} |

\exp (h X/2)\exp (h Y)\exp (h X/2) & = & \exp (h X + h Y + h^2 |

\end{eqnarray} |
| 836 |

Since \[ [X,Y] + [Y,X] = 0\] and \[ [X,X] = 0\], the dominant local |

error of Spring splitting is proportional to $h^3$. The same |
