A Seminar Announcement from IOP 演講者 (Speaker) 題目 (Title) 摘要 (Abstract) 奥村久士 教授 Prof. Hisashi Okumura 日本分子科學研究所 Institute for Molecular Science, Japan Replica-Permutation Molecular Dynamics Simulations : Better Alternative to ReplicaExchange Method We proposed a new method for molecular dynamics simulations, which is referred to as the replica-permutation method (RPM) [1] to realize more efficient sampling than the replica-exchange method (REM). In RPM, not only exchanges between two replicas but also permutations among more than two replicas are performed. Furthermore, instead of the Metropolis algorithm, the Suwa−Todo algorithm is employed for replica-permutation trials to minimize its rejection ratio. We found that RPM sampled not only the temperature space but also the conformational space more efficiently than REM for all systems. [1] S. G. Itoh and H. Okumura: J. Chem.
