    Abstract The optimization of conical intersection structures is complicated by the nondifferentiability of the adiabatic potential energy surfaces. In this work, we build a pseudodiabatic surrogate model, based on Gaussian process regression, formed by three smooth and differentiable surfaces that can adequately reproduce the adiabatic surfaces. Using this model with the restricted variance optimization method results in a notable decrease of the overall computational effort required to obtain minimum energy crossing points.

    Abstract In this work, three versions of self-consistent field/Kohn-Sham density functional theory (SCF/KS-DFT) orbital optimization are described and benchmarked. The methods are a modified version of the geometry version of the direct inversion in the iterative subspace approach (which we call r-GDIIS), the modified restricted step rational function optimization method (RS-RFO), and the novel subspace gradient-enhanced Kriging method combined with restricted variance optimization (S-GEK/RVO). The modifications introduced are aimed at improving the robustness and computational scaling of the procedures. In particular, the subspace approach in S-GEK/RVO allows the application to SCF/KS-DFT optimization of a machine learning technique that has proven to be successful in geometry optimizations. The performance of the three methods is benchmarked for a large number of small- to medium-sized organic molecules, at equilibrium structures and close to a transition state, and a second set of molecules containing closed- and open-shell transition metals. The results indicate the importance of the resetting technique in boosting the performance of the r-GDIIS procedure. Moreover, it is demonstrated that already at the inception of the subspace version of GEK to optimize SCF wave functions, it displays superior and robust convergence properties as compared to those of the standard state-of-the-art SCF/KS-DFT optimization methods.

    Abstract Herewith, we propose two new exponents for the recently introduced XDW-CASPT2 method [S. Battaglia and R. Lindh, J. Chem. Theory Comput. 16, 1555-1567 (2020)], which fix one of the largest issues hindering this approach. By using the first-order effective Hamiltonian coupling elements, the weighting scheme implicitly takes into account the symmetry of the states, thereby averaging Fock operators only if the zeroth-order wave functions interact with each other. The use of Hamiltonian couplings also provides a physically sounder approach to quantitate the relative weights; however, it introduces new difficulties when these rapidly die off to zero. The improved XDW-CASPT2 method is critically tested on several systems of photochemical relevance, and it is shown that it succeeds in its original intent of maintaining MS-CASPT2 accuracy for the evaluation of transition energies and at the same time providing smooth potential energy surfaces around near-degenerate points akin to XMS-CASPT2.

    Abstract Crossings between states involve complex electronic structures, making the accurate characterization of the crossing point difficult. In this study, the analytic derivatives of three complete active space second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2) variants as well as an extension of the restricted active space (RASPT2) are developed. These variants are applied to locating minimum energy conical intersections. Our results demonstrate that the three CASPT2 variants predict qualitatively similar results, but a recently developed variant, the rotated multistate CASPT2 (RMS-CASPT2), is least sensitive to the number of states considered in the calculation. We demonstrate that CASPT2 and the reference self-consistent field calculations predict qualitatively different energetics and bond lengths.

    Abstract We introduce a new variant of the complete active space second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2) method that performs similarly to multistate CASPT2 (MS-CASPT2) in regions of the potential energy surface where the electronic states are energetically well separated and is akin to extended MS-CASPT2 (XMS-CASPT2) in case the underlying zeroth-order references are near-degenerate. Our approach follows a recipe analogous to that of XMS-CASPT2 to ensure approximate invariance under unitary transformations of the model states and a dynamic weighting scheme to smoothly interpolate the Fock operator between state-specific and state-average regimes. The resulting extended dynamically weighted CASPT2 (XDW-CASPT2) methodology possesses the most desirable features of both MS-CASPT2 and XMS-CASPT2, that is, the ability to provide accurate transition energies and correctly describe avoided crossings and conical intersections. The reliability of XDW-CASPT2 is assessed on a number of molecular systems. First, we consider the dissociation of lithium fluoride, highlighting the distinctive characteristics of the new approach. Second, the invariance of the theory is investigated by studying the conical intersection of the distorted allene molecule. Finally, the relative accuracy in the calculation of vertical excitation energies is benchmarked on a set of 26 organic compounds. We found that XDW-CASPT2, albeit being only approximately invariant, produces smooth potential energy surfaces around conical intersections and avoided crossings, performing equally well to the strictly invariant XMS-CASPT2 method. The accuracy of vertical transition energies is almost identical to MS-CASPT2, with a mean absolute deviation of 0.01-0.02 eV, in contrast to 0.12 eV for XMS-CASPT2.

    Abstract Gaussian process regression has recently been explored as an alternative to standard surrogate models in molecular equilibrium geometry optimization. In particular, the gradient-enhanced Kriging approach in association with internal coordinates, restricted-variance optimization, and an efficient and fast estimate of hyperparameters has demonstrated performance on par or better than standard methods. In this report, we extend the approach to constrained optimizations and transition states and benchmark it for a set of reactions. We compare the performance of the newly developed method with the standard techniques in the location of transition states and in constrained optimizations, both isolated and in the context of reaction path computation. The results show that the method outperforms the current standard in efficiency as well as in robustness.

    Abstract Dinoflagellates are the dominant source of bioluminescence in coastal waters. The luminescence reaction involves the oxidation of luciferin by a luciferase enzyme, which only takes place at low pH. The pH-dependence has previously been linked to four conserved histidines. It has been suggested that their protonation might induce a conformational change in the enzyme, thereby allowing substrate access to the binding pocket. Yet, the precise mechanism of luciferase activation has remained elusive. Here, we use computational tools to predict the open structure of the luciferase in Lingulodinium polyedra and to decipher the nature of the opening mechanism. Through accelerated molecular dynamics simulations, we demonstrate that the closed-open conformational change likely takes place via a tilt of the pH-regulatory helix-loop-helix domain. Moreover, we propose that the molecular basis for the transition is electrostatic repulsion between histidine-cation pairs, which destabilizes the closed conformation at low pH. Finally, by simulating truncated mutants, we show that eliminating the C-terminus alters the shape of the active site, effectively inactivating the luciferase.
