arXiv:2606. 02662v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine learning has accelerated quantum chemistry but is hindered by the prohibitive cost of generating high fidelity training data.
By Vivin Vinod, Peter Zaspel
The paper introduces a neural network architecture that learns a latent, implicit basis representation of the electronic-state Hamiltonian, enabling a unified treatment of ground and excited states, conical intersections, and non‑adiabatic couplings. The model is trained on realistic photochemical systems—thymine and azobenzene—and accurately reproduces energies, oscillator strengths, and critical geometries such as conical intersections and excited‑state minima. It also captures Berry phase accumulation around conical intersections and can be extended to learn other operators like transition dipole moments.

arXiv:2607. 05736v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Molecular property prediction often relies on isolated data modalities, where continuous 3D graph neural networks (GNNs) struggle to efficiently capture long-range topological dependencies and exact macroscopic heuristics.

The paper introduces HamQASBench, a structure‑aware benchmark for quantum architecture search that includes eleven molecular Hamiltonians up to fourteen qubits, exact references, and a comprehensive evaluation protocol. The protocol combines energy accuracy, success rates, reference‑relative circuit cost, local entropy profiles for non‑degenerate targets, and state identification within degenerate ground subspaces. Experiments with five methods across four search paradigms show that energy‑only comparisons miss important differences, such as varying gate counts, distinct spin components in degenerate cases, and differing entanglement profiles, while still achieving chemical accuracy on a near‑product instance.

arXiv:2606. 14498v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting the Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian with machine learning can accelerate density functional theory while retaining access to molecular orbitals, energy levels, and electronic-structure observables that energy-only surrogates cannot resolve.

arXiv:2509. 21624v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fundamental tasks in computational chemistry, from transition state search to vibrational analysis, rely on molecular Hessians, which are the second derivatives of the potential energy.

The paper introduces Gaussian Splatting for Density Functional Theory (GS‑DFT), a method that represents molecular orbitals as a cloud of Gaussians optimized via gradient descent. GS‑DFT replaces fixed atom‑centered basis sets with an adaptive, differentiable orthogonalization and efficient two‑electron integral evaluation, achieving accuracy comparable to large conventional bases with far fewer parameters. The solver scales quadratically with cloud size, enabling simulations of up to 2,742 atoms on a single four‑GPU node at triple‑zeta precision.
