Unbiased sampling of lattice Hamilton path ensembles
Hamilton paths, or Hamiltonian paths, are walks on a lattice which visit each site exactly once. They have been proposed as models of globular proteins and of compact polymers. A previously published ...

We present a rigorous description of chemical space within a molecular grand-canonical ensemble multi-component density functional theory framework. A total energy density functional for chemical compounds in contact with an electron and a proton bath is introduced using Lagrange multipliers which correspond to the energetic response to changes of the elementary particle densities. From a generalized Gibbs-Duhem equation analog, reactivity indices such as the nuclear hardness and a molecular Fukui function, which couples the grand-canonical electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom, are obtained. Maxwell relations between composition particles, ionic displacements, and the external potential are discussed. Numerical results for the molecular Fukui function are presented as well as finite temperature estimates for the oxidation of ammonia. ©2006 American Institute of Physics
