A Unified Heterogeneous Implementation of Numerical Atomic Orbitals-Based Real-Time TDDFT within the ABACUS Package

We present a unified heterogeneous computing framework for real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) based on numerical atomic orbitals (NAOs), implemented in the ABACUS package. We introduce three co-designed abstraction layers, including unified data containers, unified linear algebra operators, and unified grid integration interfaces. These layers collectively accelerate the two most demanding parts of NAO-based RT-TDDFT: explicit real-time wavefunction propagation and real-space grid operations such as Hamiltonian construction and force evaluation under external fields. We validate the method by computing optical properties for systems ranging from finite molecules to periodic solids, showing excellent agreement with standard benchmarks. Performance evaluations on bulk silicon demonstrate that a single GPU can achieve substantial wall-clock speedup over a fully utilized dual-socket CPU node. Furthermore, distributed multi-GPU strong-scaling tests confirm high parallel efficiency over tens of GPUs. This work establishes a high-performance, portable platform for large-scale first-principles simulations of ultrafast electron dynamics.

Systematically Improvable Numerical Atomic Orbital Basis Using Contracted Truncated Spherical Waves

To solve the Kohn-Sham equation within the framework of density functional theory, we develop a scheme to construct numerical atomic orbital (NAO) basis sets by contracting truncated spherical waves (TSWs). The contraction minimizes the trace of the kinetic operator in the residual space, generalizing the spillage minimizing scheme [M. Chen et al., J. Phys. Condens. Matter 22, 445501 (2010); P. Lin et al., Phys. Rev. B 103, 235131 (2021)]. In addition to the systematic improvability inherited from previous schemes, the use of TSW instead of plane waves as the expansion basis bridges reference states and NAOs more effectively, and eliminates spurious interactions between periodic images, thereby enabling better transferability through the inclusion of extensive reference states. Benchmarks demonstrate that the constructed NAO achieves satisfactory precision for various properties of both molecules and bulk systems, including total energy, bond length, atomization energy, lattice constant, cohesive energy, band gap, and energy-level alignment. By incorporating unoccupied states, the improved transferability in describing the conduction band is demonstrated to be effective and substantial.

Integrating Deep-Learning-Based Magnetic Model and Non-Collinear Spin-Constrained Method: Methodology, Implementation and Application

We propose a non-collinear spin-constrained method that generates training data for deep-learning-based magnetic model, which provides a powerful tool for studying complex magnetic phenomena that requires large-scale simulations at the atomic level. First, we propose a basis-independent projection method for calculating atomic magnetic moments by applying a radial truncation to numerical atomic orbitals. A double-loop Lagrange multiplier method is utilized to ensure the satisfaction of constraint conditions while achieving accurate magnetic torque. The method is implemented in ABACUS with both plane wave basis and numerical atomic orbital basis. We benchmark the iron (Fe) systems and analyze differences from calculations with the plane wave basis and numerical atomic orbitals basis in describing magnetic energy barriers. Based on an automated workflow composed of first-principles calculations, magnetic model, active learning, and dynamics simulation, more than 30,000 first-principles data with the information of magnetic torque are generated to train a deep-learning-based magnetic model DeePSPIN for the Fe system. By utilizing the model in large-scale molecular dynamics simulations, we successfully predict Curie temperatures of alpha-Fe close to experimental values.

ABACUS: An Electronic Structure Analysis Package for the AI Era

ABACUS (Atomic-orbital Based Ab-initio Computation at USTC) is an open-source software for first-principles electronic structure calculations and molecular dynamics simulations. It mainly features density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics functions and is compatible with both plane-wave basis sets and numerical atomic orbital basis sets. ABACUS serves as a platform that facilitates the integration of various electronic structure methods, such as Kohn-Sham DFT, stochastic DFT, orbital-free DFT, and real-time time-dependent DFT, etc. In addition, with the aid of high-performance computing, ABACUS is designed to perform efficiently and provide massive amounts of first-principles data for generating general-purpose machine learning potentials, such as DPA models. Furthermore, ABACUS serves as an electronic structure platform that interfaces with several AI-assisted algorithms and packages, such as DeePKS-kit, DeePMD, DP-GEN, DeepH, DeePTB, HamGNN, etc.

Deep Learning Accelerated Quantum Transport Simulations in Nanoelectronics: From Break Junctions to Field-Effect Transistors

Quantum transport simulations are essential for understanding and designing nanoelectronic devices, yet the long-standing trade-off between accuracy and computational efficiency has limited their practical applications. We present DeePTB-NEGF, an integrated framework combining deep learning tight-binding Hamiltonian prediction with non-equilibrium Green's Function methodology to enable accurate quantum transport simulations in open boundary conditions with 2-3 orders of magnitude acceleration. We demonstrate DeePTB-NEGF through two challenging applications: comprehensive break junction simulations with over $10^4$ snapshots, showing excellent agreement with experimental conductance histograms; and carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNT-FET) at experimental dimensions, reproducing measured transfer characteristics for a 41 nm channel CNT-FET ($\sim 8000$ atoms, $3\times10^4$ orbitals) and predicting zero-bias transmission spectra for a 180 nm CNT ($\sim 3\times 10^4$ atoms, $10^5$ orbitals), showcasing the framework's capability for large-scale device simulations. Our systematic studies across varying geometries confirm the necessity of simulating realistic experimental structures for precise predictions. DeePTB-NEGF bridges the longstanding gap between first-principles accuracy and computational efficiency, providing a scalable tool for high-throughput and large-scale quantum transport simulations that enables previously inaccessible nanoscale device investigations.

Partial regularity of suitable weak solutions of the model arising in amorphous molecular beam epitaxy

In this paper, we are concerned with the precise relationship between the Hausdorff dimension of possible singular point set $\mathcal{S}$ of suitable weak solutions and the parameter $α$ in the nonlinear term in the following parabolic equation $$h_t+h_{xxxx}+\partial_{xx}|h_x|^α=f.$$ It is shown that when $5/3\leqα<7/3$, the $\frac{3α-5}{α-1}$-dimensional parabolic Hausdorff measure of $\mathcal{S}$ is zero, which generalizes the recent corresponding work of Ozánski and Robinson in [31,SIAM J. Math. Anal. 51: 228--255, 2019] for $α=2$ and $f=0$. The same result is valid for a 3D modified Navier-Stokes system.
