Boltzmann-Expected Molecular Design with Decoupled Annealing Flows

arXiv:2607. 19519v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most 3D properties relevant to molecular design, including free energies and shape descriptors, are $\textit{expectations}$ over the Boltzmann distribution over 3D configurations of a molecular graph.

Autoregressive latent diffusion for 3D molecule generation

arXiv:2607. 09277v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) molecule generation has been dominated by diffusion models, which achieve strong generation quality but typically require the molecular size to be specified a priori.

Do Language Models Dream of Binding Molecules? Benchmarking LLMs under Spatial Constraints

arXiv:2607. 18144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Structure-based drug design (SBDD) leverages the 3D structure of protein targets, often complemented by other spatial constraints, to generate candidate binding molecules.

Leveraging generative hallucination and biophysics-informed modeling for unified biomolecular sequence-structure co-design

arXiv:2608. 17381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Biomolecular design underpins applications from molecular recognition to therapeutics and synthetic biology, yet de novo interaction design remains challenging-especially for DNA/RNA, underexplored non-protein modalities with scarce, heterogeneous complex data and sharper geometric and chemical constraints.

Emyx: Fast and efficient all-atom protein generation

arXiv:2606. 19377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computational enzyme design requires generating proteins that scaffold catalytic residues and ligands, a task that demands both geometric accuracy and structural diversity from the underlying generative model.

How Molecular Generative Models Organize Molecular Identity

arXiv:2608. 06956v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models for matter are often evaluated as samplers over output representations, and their latent spaces are commonly used as proxies for navigating chemical space.
