  2. 2. Parallelization of dynamic algorithms for electronic structure calculations

    Författare :Anton G. Artemov; Emanuel H. Rubensson; Maya Neytcheva; Bo Kågström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; parallelization; task-based programming; matrix algorithms; sparse matrices; inverse factorization; localized computations; density matrix methods; electronic structure calculations; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of electronic structure calculations is to simulate behavior of complex materials by resolving interactions between electrons and nuclei in atoms at the level of quantum mechanics. Progress in the field allows to reduce the computational complexity of the solution methods to linear so that the computational time scales proportionally to the size of the physical system. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Wood combustion is mainly used in cold regions as a primary or supplemental space heating source in residential areas. In several industrialized countries, there is a renewed interest in residential wood combustion (RWC) as an alternative to fossil fuel and nuclear power consumption. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Efficient Density Matrix Methods for Large Scale Electronic Structure Calculations

    Författare :Anastasia Kruchinina; Emanuel H. Rubensson; Elias Rudberg; David Bowler; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electronic structure; linear scaling; density matrix; density functional theory; Hartree-Fock; recursive polynomial expansion; density matrix purification; eigenvectors; molecular orbitals; stopping criteria; inverse factorization; matrix sparsity; parallelization; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Efficient and accurate methods for computing the density matrix are necessary to be able to perform large scale electronic structure calculations. For sufficiently sparse matrices, the computational cost of recursive polynomial expansions to construct the density matrix scales linearly with increasing system size. LÄS MER
