An open-source application for first-principles molecular dynamics based on a pseudopotential method using plane bases. This application can perform electronic-state calculation and molecular dynamics employing the Car-Parrinello method. It implements MPI parallelization, which enables us to perform efficient parallel computing in various environments including large-scale parallel computers. The program is written in C++, and is distributed in source form under the GPL license.
An open-source application for obtaining optimized many-body wavefunctions expressed by matrix product states (MPS). By using a second-generation density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm, many-body wave functions can be efficiently optimized. The quantum-chemical operators are represented by matrix product operators (MPOs), which provides flexibility to accommodate various symmetries and relativistic effects.
A program package for numerically solving effective lattice models using matrix product states (MPS). The ground state of a one-dimensional quantum system and its time evolution can be numerically evaluated by using an infinite system algorithm based on MPS. Useful tutorials and examples of calculations are also provided.
Open-source package for first-principles calculation based on pseudo-potential and plane-wave basis. This package performs various electronic-state calculation by density functional theory such as band calculation of solids, and structure optimization of surfaces/interfaces. Detailed tutorials and documents are well prepared in this package, and many physical quantities including chemical reaction and lattice vibration can be obtained easily.
An application for numerical renormalization group calculations. This application can solve magnetic impurity problems described by the Kondo model and the Anderson model. Input files are prepared for typical impulity models. By modifying input files, one can study more general models of the magnetic impurity problems. A mathematica program for generation of input files are also included.
An open-source application for semi-empirical quantum chemical calculation based on NDDO (neglect of diatomic differential overlap) approximation. This program calculates, for a given molecule or a crystal, molecular orbits and atomic forces, as well as vibration spectra, thermal quantities (heat of formation etc.), isotopic exchange effect, force constant, and so on. It can also treat radicals and ions.
WEST is a package for calculating excited spectrum by using the one-shot GW method. Before calculating the excited spectrum, it is necessary to obtain the ground states from the DFT calculations (LDA/GGA/hybrid functional) by Quantum ESPRESSO. To reduce the numerical cost, WEST uses the algorithm that does not require the unoccupied bands. It is also possible to include the spin-orbit couplings and to perform the large-scale calculations at supercomputers. Installation and formats of input files are basically the same as those of Quantum ESPRESSO.
An open source library for implementing tensor networks. It is developed based on TensorFlow and is designed to be easily used by experts in the field of machine learning as well as in the field of physics. In addition to TensorFlow, it includes wrappers for JAX, PyTorch, and Numpy.
AkaiKKR is a first-principles all-electron code package that calculates the electronic structure of condensed matters using the Green’s function method (KKR). It is based on the density functional theory and is applicable to a wide range of physical systems. It can be used to simulate not only periodic crystalline solids, but also used to calculate electronic structures of impurity systems and, by using the coherent potential approximation (CPA), random systems such as disordered alloys, mixed crystals, and spin-disordered systems.
A group of applications that perform molecular dynamics, hybrid quantum/classical mechanical simulation, search of chemical reaction path by the nudged elastic band method, and potential parameter fitting. The molecular dynamics code includes interatomic potentials for several metals and semiconductors, and is capable of parallel computation based of spatial decomposition.
