CMSA Interdisciplinary Science Seminar: Surface hopping algorithms for non-adiabatic quantum systems

When: June 16, 2022
9:00 am - 10:00 am
Where: CMSA, 20 Garden St, G10
Address: 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA 02138, United States
Speaker: Jianfeng Lu - Duke University

Surface hopping algorithm is widely used in chemistry for mixed quantum-classical dynamics. In this talk, we will discuss some of our recent works in mathematical understanding and algorithm development for surface hopping methods. These methods are based on stochastic approximations of semiclassical path-integral representation to the solution of multi-level Schrodinger equations; such methodology also extends to other high dimensional transport systems.
