Abstract
Accurate quantum dynamics simulations of nonadiabatic processes are important for studies of electron transfer, energy transfer, and photochemical reactions in complex systems. In this comparative study, we benchmark various approximate nonadiabatic dynamics methods with mapping variables against numerically exact calculations based on the tensor-train (TT) representation of high-dimensional arrays, including TT-KSL for zero-temperature dynamics and TT-thermofield dynamics for finite-temperature dynamics. The approximate nonadiabatic dynamics methods investigated include mixed quantum-classical Ehrenfest mean-field and fewest-switches surface hopping, linearized semiclassical mapping dynamics, symmetrized quasiclassical dynamics, the spin-mapping method, and extended classical mapping models. Different model systems were evaluated, including the spin-boson model for nonadiabatic dynamics in the condensed phase, the linear vibronic coupling model for electronic transition through conical intersections, the photoisomerization model of retinal, and Tully's one-dimensional scattering models. Our calculations show that the optimal choice of approximate dynamical method is system-specific, and the accuracy is sensitively dependent on the zero-point-energy parameter and the initial sampling strategy for the mapping variables.

Abstract
Recent progress on the constraint coordinate-momentum phase space (CPS) formulation of finite-state quantum systems has revealed that the triangle window function approach is an isomorphic representation of the exact population-population correlation function of the two-state system. We use the triangle window (TW) function and the CPS mapping kernel element to formulate a novel useful representation of discrete electronic degrees of freedom (DOFs). When it is employed with nonadiabatic field (NaF) dynamics, a new variant of the NaF approach (i.e., NaF-TW) is proposed. The NaF-TW expression of the population of any adiabatic state is always positive semidefinite. Extensive benchmark tests of model systems in both the condensed phase and gas phase demonstrate that the NaF-TW approach is able to faithfully capture the dynamical interplay between electronic and nuclear DOFs in a broad region, including where the states remain coupled all the time, as well as where the bifurcation characteristic of nuclear motion is important.

Abstract
Photoinduced charge transfer (CT) in the condensed phase is an essential component in solar energy conversion, but it is challenging to simulate such a process on the all-atom level. The traditional Marcus theory has been utilized for obtaining CT rate constants between pairs of electronic states but cannot account for the nonequilibrium effects due to the initial nuclear preparation. The recently proposed instantaneous Marcus theory (IMT) and its nonlinear-response formulation allow for incorporating the nonequilibrium nuclear relaxation to electronic transition between two states after the photoexcitation from the equilibrium ground state and provide the time-dependent rate coefficient. In this work, we extend the nonlinear-response IMT method for treating photoinduced CT among general multiple electronic states and demonstrate it in the organic photovoltaic carotenoid-porphyrin-fullerene triad dissolved in explicit tetrahydrofuran solvent. All-atom molecular dynamics simulations were employed to obtain the time correlation functions of energy gaps, which were used to generate the IMT-required time-dependent averages and variances of the relevant energy gaps. Our calculations show that the multistate IMT could capture the significant nonequilibrium effects due to the initial nuclear state preparation, and this is corroborated by the substantial differences between the population dynamics predicted by the multistate IMT and the Marcus theory, where the Marcus theory underestimates the population transfer. The population dynamics by multistate IMT is also shown to have a better agreement with the all-atom nonadiabatic mapping dynamics than the Marcus theory does. Because the multistate nonlinear-response IMT is straightforward and cost-effective in implementation and accounts for the nonequilibrium nuclear effects, we believe this method offers a practical strategy for studying charge transfer dynamics in complex condensed-phase systems.

Abstract
The violation of detailed balance poses a serious problem for the majority of current quasiclassical methods for simulating nonadiabatic dynamics. In order to analyze the severity of the problem, we predict the long-time limits of the electronic populations according to various quasiclassical mapping approaches by applying arguments from classical ergodic theory. Our analysis confirms that regions of the mapping space that correspond to negative populations, which most mapping approaches introduce in order to go beyond the Ehrenfest approximation, pose the most serious issue for reproducing the correct thermalization behavior. This is because inverted potentials, which arise from negative electronic populations entering the nuclear force, can result in trajectories unphysically accelerating off to infinity. The recently developed mapping approach to surface hopping (MASH) provides a simple way of avoiding inverted potentials while retaining an accurate description of the dynamics. We prove that MASH, unlike any other quasiclassical approach, is guaranteed to describe the exact thermalization behavior of all quantum-classical systems, confirming it as one of the most promising methods for simulating nonadiabatic dynamics in real condensed-phase systems.

Abstract
Constructing multistate model Hamiltonians from all-atom electronic structure calculations and molecular dynamics simulations is crucial for understanding charge and energy transfer dynamics in complex condensed phases. The most popular two-level system model is the spin-boson Hamiltonian, where the nuclear degrees of freedom are represented as shifted normal modes. Recently, we proposed the general multistate nontrivial extension of the spin-boson model, i.e., the multistate harmonic (MSH) model, which is constructed by extending the spatial dimensions of each nuclear mode so as to satisfy the all-atom reorganization energy restrictions for all pairs of electronic states. In this work, we propose the multistate reaction coordinate (MRC) model with a primary reaction coordinate and secondary bath modes as in the Caldeira-Leggett form but in extended spatial dimensions. The MRC model is proven to be equivalent to the MSH model and offers an intuitive physical picture of the nuclear-electronic feedback in nonadiabatic processes such as the inherent trajectory of the reaction coordinate. The reaction coordinate is represented in extended dimensions, carrying the entire reorganization energies and bilinearly coupled to the secondary bath modes. We demonstrate the MRC model construction for photoinduced charge transfer in an organic photovoltaic caroteniod-porphyrin-C60 molecular triad dissolved in tetrahydrofuran as well as excitation energy transfer in a photosynthetic light-harvesting Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex. The MRC model provides an effective and robust platform for investigating quantum dissipative dynamics in complex condensed-phase systems since it allows a consistent description of realistic spectral density, state-dependent system-bath couplings, and heterogeneous environments due to static disorder in reorganization energies.

Abstract
A common strategy to simulate mixed quantum-classical dynamics is by propagating classical trajectories with mapping variables, often using the Meyer-Miller-Stock-Thoss (MMST) Hamiltonian or the related spin-mapping approach. When mapping the quantum subsystem, the coupled dynamics reduce to a set of equations of motion to integrate. Several numerical algorithms have been proposed, but a thorough performance comparison appears to be lacking. Here, we compare three time-propagation algorithms for the MMST Hamiltonian: the Momentum Integral (MInt) (J. Chem. Phys., 2018, 148, 102326), the Split-Liouvillian (SL) (Chem. Phys., 2017, 482, 124-134), and the algorithm in J. Chem. Phys., 2012, 136, 084101 that we refer to as the Degenerate Eigenvalue (DE) algorithm due to the approximation required during derivation. We analyze the accuracy of individual trajectories, correlation functions, energy conservation, symplecticity, Liouville's theorem, and the computational cost. We find that the MInt algorithm is the only rigorously symplectic algorithm. However, comparable accuracy at a lower computational cost can be obtained with the SL algorithm. The approximation implicitly made within the DE algorithm conserves energy poorly, even for small timesteps, and thus leads to slightly different results. These results should guide future mapping-variable simulations.

Abstract
When molecules are coupled to an optical cavity, new light-matter hybrid states, so-called polaritons, are formed due to quantum light-matter interactions. With the experimental demonstrations of modifying chemical reactivities by forming polaritons under strong light-matter interactions, theorists have been encouraged to develop new methods to simulate these systems and discover new strategies to tune and control reactions. This review summarizes some of these exciting theoretical advances in polariton chemistry, in methods ranging from the fundamental framework to computational techniques and applications spanning from photochemistry to vibrational strong coupling. Even though the theory of quantum light-matter interactions goes back to the midtwentieth century, the gaps in the knowledge of molecular quantum electrodynamics (QED) have only recently been filled. We review recent advances made in resolving gauge ambiguities, the correct form of different QED Hamiltonians under different gauges, and their connections to various quantum optics models. Then, we review recently developed ab initio QED approaches which can accurately describe polariton states in a realistic molecule-cavity hybrid system. We then discuss applications using these method advancements. We review advancements in polariton photochemistry where the cavity is made resonant to electronic transitions to control molecular nonadiabatic excited state dynamics and enable new photochemical reactivities. When the cavity resonance is tuned to the molecular vibrations instead, ground-state chemical reaction modifications have been demonstrated experimentally, though its mechanistic principle remains unclear. We present some recent theoretical progress in resolving this mystery. Finally, we review the recent advances in understanding the collective coupling regime between light and matter, where many molecules can collectively couple to a single cavity mode or many cavity modes. We also lay out the current challenges in theory to explain the observed experimental results. We hope that this review will serve as a useful document for anyone who wants to become familiar with the context of polariton chemistry and molecular cavity QED and thus significantly benefit the entire community.

Abstract
We present a nonadiabatic classical-trajectory approach that offers the best of both worlds between fewest-switches surface hopping (FSSH) and quasiclassical mapping dynamics. This mapping approach to surface hopping (MASH) propagates the nuclei on the active adiabatic potential-energy surface, such as in FSSH. However, unlike in FSSH, transitions between active surfaces are deterministic and occur when the electronic mapping variables evolve between specified regions of the electronic phase space. This guarantees internal consistency between the active surface and the electronic degrees of freedom throughout the dynamics. MASH is rigorously derivable from exact quantum mechanics as a limit of the quantum-classical Liouville equation (QCLE), leading to a unique prescription for momentum rescaling and frustrated hops. Hence, a quantum-jump procedure can, in principle, be used to systematically converge the accuracy of the results to that of the QCLE. This jump procedure also provides a rigorous framework for deriving approximate decoherence corrections similar to those proposed for FSSH. We apply MASH to simulate the nonadiabatic dynamics in various model systems and show that it consistently produces more accurate results than FSSH at a comparable computational cost.

Abstract
The long short-term memory recurrent neural network (LSTM-RNN) approach is applied to realize the trajectory-based nonadiabatic dynamics within the framework of the symmetrical quasi-classical dynamics method based on the Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian (MM-SQC). After construction, the LSTM-RNN model allows us to propagate the entire trajectory evolutions of all involved degrees of freedoms (DOFs) from initial conditions. The proposed idea is proven to be reliable and accurate in the simulations of the dynamics of several site-exciton electron-phonon coupling models and three Tully's scattering models. It indicates that the LSTM-RNN model perfectly captures the dynamical information on the trajectory evolution in the MM-SQC dynamics. Our work proposes a novel machine learning approach in the simulation of trajectory-based nonadiabatic dynamic of complex systems with a large number of DOFs.

Abstract
Direct all-atom simulation of nonadiabatic dynamics in disordered condensed phases like liquid solutions and amorphous solids has been challenging. The first all-atom simulation of the photoinduced charge-transfer dynamics of a prototypical organic photovoltaic carotenoid-porphyrin-C60 molecular triad in explicit tetrahydrofuran is presented. Based on the Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian, various semiclassical and mixed quantum-classical dynamics are employed, including the linearized semiclassical, symmetrical quasiclassical, mean-field Ehrenfest, classical mapping model, and spin-mapping model approaches. The all-atom nonadiabatic dynamics were compared to multi-state harmonic models with a globally shared bath, and the models built using the ensemble averages on the initial electronic state could reproduce the all-atom results. The solvent effect was found to be critical for the photoinduced charge transfer, and the time-dependent solute-solvent radial distribution functions revealed that only the nonadiabatic dynamics started with the effective forces on the initial electronic state could capture the correct nuclear dynamics. The proposed strategy for modeling condensed-phase nonadiabatic dynamics with atomistic details is readily applied to complex condensed-phase systems.

Abstract
Quantum master equations (QMEs) provide a general framework for describing electronic dynamics within a complex molecular system. Off-diagonal QMEs (OD-QMEs) correspond to a family of QMEs that describe the electronic dynamics in the interaction picture based on treating the off-diagonal coupling terms between electronic states as a small perturbation within the framework of second-order perturbation theory. The fact that OD-QMEs are given in terms of the interaction picture makes it non-trivial to obtain Schrodinger picture electronic coherences from them. A key experimental quantity that relies on the ability to obtain accurate Schrodinger picture electronic coherences is the absorption spectrum. In this paper, we propose using a recently introduced procedure for extracting Schrodinger picture electronic coherences from interaction picture inputs to calculate electronic absorption spectra from electronic dynamics generated by OD-QMEs. The accuracy of the absorption spectra obtained in this way is studied in the context of a biexciton benchmark model, by comparing spectra calculated based on time-local and time-nonlocal OD-QMEs to spectra calculated based on a Redfield-type QME and the non-perturbative and quantum-mechanically exact hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) method.

Abstract
We present the rigorous theoretical framework of the generalized spin mapping representation for non-adiabatic dynamics. Our work is based up a new mapping formalism recently introduced by Runeson and Richardson in [J. Chem. Phys. 152, 084110 (2020)], which uses the generators of the su(N) Lie algebra to represent N discrete electronic states, thus preserving the size of the original Hilbert space. Following this interesting idea, the Stratonovich-Weyl transform is used to map an operator in the Hilbert space to a continuous function on the SU(N) Lie group, i.e., a smooth manifold which is a phase space of continuous variables. We further use the Wigner representation to describe the nuclear degrees of freedom, and derived an exact expression of the time-correlation function as well as the exact quantum Liouvillian for the non-adiabatic system. Making the linearization approximation, this exact Liouvillian is reduced to the Liouvillian of several recently proposed methods, and the performance of this Linearized method is tested using non-adiabatic models. We envision that the theoretical work presented here provides a rigorous and unified framework to formally derive non-adiabatic quantum dynamics approaches with continuous variables and connect the previous methods in a clear and concise manner.

Abstract
We show that combining the linearized semiclasscial approximation with Fermi's golden rule (FGR) rate theory gives rise to a general-purpose cost-effective and scalable computational framework that can accurately capture the cavity-induced rate enhancement of charge transfer reactions that occurs when the molecular system is placed inside a microcavity. Both partial linearization with respect to the nuclear and photonic degrees of freedom and full linerization with respect to nuclear, photonic, and electronic degrees of freedom (the latter within the mapping Hamiltonian approach) are shown to be highly accurate, provided that the Wigner transforms of the product (WoP) of operators at the initial time is not replaced by the product of their Wigner transforms. We also show that the partial linearization method yields the quantum-mechanically exact cavity-modified FGR rate constant for a model system in which the donor and acceptor potential energy surfaces are harmonic and identical except for a shift in the equilibrium energy and geometry, if WoP is applied.

Abstract
Sodium hydride (NaH) in the gas phase presents a seemingly simple electronic structure making it a potentially tractable system for the detailed investigation of nonadiabatic molecular dynamics from both computational and experimental standpoints. The single vibrational degree of freedom, as well as the strong nonadiabatic coupling that arises from the excited electronic states taking on considerable ionic character, provides a realistic chemical system to test the accuracy of quasi-classical methods to model population dynamics where the results are directly comparable against quantum mechanical benchmarks. Using a simulated pump-probe type experiment, this work presents computational predictions of population transfer through the avoided crossings of NaH via symmetric quasi-classical Meyer-Miller (SQC/MM), Ehrenfest, and exact quantum dynamics on realistic, ab initio potential energy surfaces. The main driving force for population transfer arises from the ground vibrational level of the D1Σ+ adiabatic state that is embedded in the manifold of near-dissociation C1Σ+ vibrational states. When coupled through a sharply localized first-order derivative coupling most of the population transfers between t = 15 and t = 30 fs depending on the initially excited vibronic wavepacket. While quantum mechanical effects are expected due to the reduced mass of NaH, predictions of the population dynamics from both the SQC/MM and Ehrenfest models perform remarkably well against the quantum dynamics benchmark. Additionally, an analysis of the vibronic structure in the nonadiabatically coupled regime is presented using a variational eigensolver methodology.

Abstract
We present a partially linearized method based on spin-mapping for computing both linear and nonlinear optical spectra. As observables are obtained from ensembles of classical trajectories, the approach can be applied to the large condensed-phase systems that undergo photosynthetic light-harvesting processes. In particular, the recently derived spin partially linearized density matrix method has been shown to exhibit superior accuracy in computing population dynamics compared to other related classical-trajectory methods. Such a method should also be ideally suited to describing the quantum coherences generated by interaction with light. We demonstrate that this is, indeed, the case by calculating the nonlinear optical response functions relevant for the pump-probe and 2D photon-echo spectra for a Frenkel biexciton model and the Fenna-Matthews-Olsen light-harvesting complex. One especially desirable feature of our approach is that the full spectrum can be decomposed into its constituent components associated with the various Liouville-space pathways, offering a greater insight beyond what can be directly obtained from experiments.

Abstract
Modeling nonadiabatic dynamics in complex molecular or condensed-phase systems has been challenging, especially for the long-time dynamics. In this work, we propose a time series machine learning scheme based on the hybrid convolutional neural network/long short-term memory (CNN-LSTM) framework for predicting the long-time quantum behavior, given only the short-time dynamics. This scheme takes advantage of both the powerful local feature extraction ability of CNN and the long-term global sequential pattern recognition ability of LSTM. With feature fusion of individually trained CNN-LSTM models for the quantum population and coherence dynamics, the proposed scheme is shown to have high accuracy and robustness in predicting the linearized semiclassical and symmetrical quasiclassical mapping dynamics as well as the mixed quantum-classical Liouville dynamics of various spin-boson models with learning time up to 0.3 ps. Furthermore, if the hybrid network has learned the dynamics of a system, this knowledge is transferable that could significantly enhance the accuracy in predicting the dynamics of a similar system. The hybrid CNN-LSTM network is thus believed to have high predictive power in forecasting the nonadiabatic dynamics in realistic charge and energy transfer processes in photoinduced energy conversion.

Abstract
Nonadiabatic dynamical processes are one of the most important quantum mechanical phenomena in chemical, materials, biological, and environmental molecular systems, where the coupling between different electronic states is either inherent in the molecular structure or induced by the (intense) external field. The curse of dimensionality indicates the intractable exponential scaling of calculation effort with system size and restricts the implementation of "numerically exact" approaches for realistic large systems. The phase space formulation of quantum mechanics offers an important theoretical framework for constructing practical approximate trajectory-based methods for quantum dynamics. This Account reviews our recent progress in phase space mapping theory: a unified framework for constructing the mapping Hamiltonian on phase space for coupled F-state systems where the renowned Meyer-Miller Hamiltonian model is a special case, a general phase space formulation of quantum mechanics for nonadiabatic systems where the electronic degrees of freedom are mapped onto constraint space and the nuclear degrees of freedom are mapped onto infinite space, and an isomorphism between the mapping phase space approach for nonadiabatic systems and that for nonequilibrium electron transport processes. While the zero-point-energy parameter is conventionally assumed to be positive, we show that the constraint implied in the conventional Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian requires that such a parameter can be negative as well and lies in (-1/F, +∞) for each electronic degree of freedom. More importantly, the zero-point-energy parameter should be interpreted as a special case of a commutator matrix in the comprehensive phase space mapping Hamiltonian for nonadiabatic systems. From the rigorous formulation of mapping phase space, we propose approximate but practical trajectory-based nonadiabatic dynamics methods. The applications to both gas phase and condensed phase problems include the spin-boson model for condensed phase dissipative two-state systems, the three-state photodissociation models, the seven-site model of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson monomer in photosynthesis of green sulfur bacteria, the strongly coupled molecular/atomic matter-optical cavity systems designed for controlling and manipulating chemical dynamical processes, and the Landauer model for a quantum dot state coupled with two electrodes. In these applications the overall performance of our phase space mapping dynamics approach is superior to two prevailing trajectory-based methods, Ehrenfest dynamics and fewest switches surface hopping.

Abstract
Quantum master equations provide a general framework for describing the dynamics of electronic observables within a complex molecular system. One particular family of such equations is based on treating the off-diagonal coupling terms between electronic states as a small perturbation within the framework of second-order perturbation theory. In this paper, we show how different choices of projection operators, as well as whether one starts out with the time-convolution or the time-convolutionless forms of the generalized quantum master equation, give rise to four different types of such off-diagonal quantum master equations (OD-QMEs), namely, time-convolution and time-convolutionless versions of a Pauli-type OD-QME for only the electronic populations and an OD-QME for the full electronic density matrix (including both electronic populations and coherences). The fact that those OD-QMEs are given in terms of the interaction picture makes it non-trivial to obtain Schrödinger picture electronic coherences from them. To address this, we also extend a procedure for extracting Schrödinger picture electronic coherences from interaction picture populations recently introduced by Trushechkin in the context of time-convolutionless Pauli-type OD-QME to the other three types of OD-QMEs. The performance of the aforementioned four types of OD-QMEs is explored in the context of the Garg-Onuchic-Ambegaokar benchmark model for charge transfer in the condensed phase across a relatively wide parameter range. The results show that time-convolution OD-QMEs can be significantly more accurate than their time-convolutionless counterparts, particularly in the case of Pauli-type OD-QMEs, and that rather accurate Schrödinger picture coherences can be obtained from interaction picture electronic inputs.

Abstract
Model Hamiltonians constructed from quantum chemistry calculations and molecular dynamics simulations are widely used for simulating nonadiabatic dynamics in the condensed phase. The most popular two-state spin-boson model could be built by mapping the all-atom anharmonic Hamiltonian onto a two-level system bilinearly coupled to a harmonic bath using the energy gap time correlation function. However, for more than two states, there lacks a general strategy to construct multi-state harmonic (MSH) models since the energy gaps between different pairs of electronic states are not entirely independent and need to be considered consistently. In this paper, we extend the previously proposed approach for building three-state harmonic models for photoinduced charge transfer to the arbitrary number of electronic states with a globally shared bath and the system-bath couplings are scaled differently according to the reorganization energies between each pair of states. We demonstrate the MSH model construction for an organic photovoltaic carotenoid-porphyrin-C60 molecular triad dissolved in explicit tetrahydrofuran solvent. Nonadiabatic dynamics was simulated using mixed quantum-classical techniques, including the linearized semiclassical and symmetrical quasiclassical dynamics with the mapping Hamiltonians, mean-field Ehrenfest, and mixed quantum-classical Liouville dynamics in two-state, three-state, and four-state harmonic models of the triad system. The MSH models are shown to provide a general and flexible framework for simulating nonadiabatic dynamics in complex systems.

Abstract
We perform on-the-fly non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations using the symmetrical quasi-classical (SQC) approach with the recently suggested molecular Tully models: ethylene and fulvene. We attempt to provide benchmarks of the SQC methods using both the square and triangle windowing schemes as well as the recently proposed electronic zero-point-energy correction scheme (the so-called γ correction). We use the quasi-diabatic propagation scheme to directly interface the diabatic SQC methods with adiabatic electronic structure calculations. Our results showcase the drastic improvement of the accuracy by using the trajectory-adjusted γ-corrections, which outperform the widely used trajectory surface hopping method with decoherence corrections. These calculations provide useful and non-trivial tests to systematically investigate the numerical performance of various diabatic quantum dynamics approaches, going beyond simple diabatic model systems that have been used as the major workhorse in the quantum dynamics field. At the same time, these available benchmark studies will also likely foster the development of new quantum dynamics approaches based on these techniques.

Abstract
We show that a novel, general phase space mapping Hamiltonian for nonadiabatic systems, which is reminiscent of the renowned Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian, involves a commutator variable matrix rather than the conventional zero-point-energy parameter. In the exact mapping formulation on constraint space for phase space approaches for nonadiabatic dynamics, the general mapping Hamiltonian with commutator variables can be employed to generate approximate trajectory-based dynamics. Various benchmark model tests, which range from gas phase to condensed phase systems, suggest that the overall performance of the general mapping Hamiltonian is better than that of the conventional Meyer-Miller Hamiltonian.

Abstract
The generalized quantum master equation (GQME) provides a general and formally exact framework for simulating the reduced dynamics of open quantum systems. The recently introduced modified approach to the GQME (M-GQME) corresponds to a specific implementation of the GQME that is geared toward simulating the dynamics of the electronic reduced density matrix in systems governed by an excitonic Hamiltonian. Such a Hamiltonian, which is often used for describing energy and charge transfer dynamics in complex molecular systems, is given in terms of diabatic electronic states that are coupled to each other and correspond to different nuclear Hamiltonians. Within the M-GQME approach, the effect of the nuclear degrees of freedom on the time evolution of the electronic density matrix is fully captured by a memory kernel superoperator, which can be obtained from short-lived (compared to the time scale of energy/charge transfer) projection-free inputs. In this paper, we test the ability of the M-GQME to predict the energy transfer dynamics within a seven-state benchmark model of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) complex, with the short-lived projection-free inputs obtained via the Ehrenfest method. The M-GQME with Ehrenfest-based inputs is shown to yield accurate results across a wide parameter range. It is also found to dramatically outperform the direct application of the Ehrenfest method and to provide better-behaved convergence with respect to memory time in comparison to an alternative implementation of the GQME approach previously applied to the same FMO model.

Abstract
The on-the-fly version of the symmetrical quasi-classical dynamics method based on the Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian (SQC/MM) is implemented to study the nonadiabatic dynamics at conical intersections of polyatomic systems. The current on-the-fly implementation of the SQC/MM method is based on the adiabatic representation and the dressed momentum. To include the zero-point energy (ZPE) correction of the electronic mapping variables, we employ both the γ-adjusted and γ-fixed approaches. Nonadiabatic dynamics of the methaniminium cation (CH2NH2+) and azomethane are simulated using the on-the-fly SQC/MM method. For CH2NH2+, both ZPE correction approaches give reasonable and consistent results. However, for azomethane, the γ-adjusted version of the SQC/MM dynamics behaves much better than the γ-fixed version. Further analysis indicates that it is always recommended to use the γ-adjusted SQC/MM dynamics in the on-the-fly simulation of photoinduced dynamics of polyatomic systems, particularly when the excited state is well separated from the ground state in the Franck-Condon region. This work indicates that the on-the-fly SQC/MM method is a powerful simulation protocol to deal with the nonadiabatic dynamics of realistic polyatomic systems.

Abstract
Recent experimental realizations of strong coupling between optical cavity modes and molecular matter placed inside the cavity have opened exciting new routes for controlling chemical processes. Simulating the cavity-modified dynamics of complex chemical systems calls for the development of accurate, flexible, and cost-effective approximate numerical methods that scale favorably with system size and complexity. In this Letter, we test the ability of quasiclassical mapping Hamiltonian methods to serve this purpose. We simulated the spontaneous emission dynamics of an atom confined to a microcavity via five different variations of the linearized semiclassical (LSC) method. Our main finding is that recently proposed LSC-based methods which use a modified form of the identity operator are reasonably accurate and perform significantly better than the Ehrenfest and standard LSC methods, without significantly increasing computational costs. These methods are therefore highly promising as a general purpose tool for simulating cavity-modified dynamics of complex chemical systems.

Abstract
We present the non-adiabatic Matsubara dynamics, a general framework for computing the time-correlation function (TCF) of electronically non-adiabatic systems. This new formalism is derived based on the generalized Kubo-transformed TCF using the Wigner representation for both the nuclear degrees of freedom and the electronic mapping variables. By dropping the non-Matsubara nuclear normal modes in the quantum Liouvillian and explicitly integrating these modes out from the expression of the TCF, we derived the non-adiabatic Matsubara dynamics approach. Further making the approximation to drop the imaginary part of the Matsubara Liouvillian and enforce the nuclear momentum integral to be real, we arrived at the non-adiabatic ring-polymer molecular dynamics (NRPMD) approach. We have further justified the capability of NRPMD for simulating the non-equilibrium TCF. This work provides the rigorous theoretical foundation for several recently proposed state-dependent RPMD approaches and offers a general framework for developing new non-adiabatic quantum dynamics methods in the future.

Abstract
The celebrated Meyer-Miller mapping model has been a useful approach for generating practical trajectory-based nonadiabatic dynamics methods. It is generally assumed that the zero-point-energy (ZPE) parameter is positive. The constraint implied in the conventional Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian for an F-electronic-state system actually requires γ∈(-1/F, ∞) for the ZPE parameter for each electronic degree of freedom. Both negative and positive values are possible for such a parameter. We first establish a rigorous formulation to construct exact mapping models in the Cartesian phase space when the constraint is applied. When nuclear dynamics is approximated by the linearized semiclassical initial value representation, a negative ZPE parameter could lead to reasonably good performance in describing dynamic behaviors in typical spin-boson models for condensed-phase two-state systems, even at challenging zero temperature.

Abstract
The system-plus-bath model is an important tool to understand the nonadiabatic dynamics of large molecular systems. Understanding the collective motion of a large number of bath modes is essential for revealing their key roles in the overall dynamics. Here, we applied principal component analysis (PCA) to investigate the bath motion in the basis of a large dataset generated from the symmetrical quasi-classical dynamics method based on the Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian nonadiabatic dynamics for the excited-state energy transfer in the Frenkel-exciton model. The PCA method clearly elucidated that two types of bath modes, which either display strong vibronic coupling or have frequencies close to that of the electronic transition, are important to the nonadiabatic dynamics. These observations were fully consistent with the physical insights. The conclusions were based on the PCA of the trajectory data and did not involve significant pre-defined physical knowledge. The results show that the PCA approach, which is one of the simplest unsupervised machine learning dimensionality reduction methods, is a powerful one for analyzing complicated nonadiabatic dynamics in the condensed phase with many degrees of freedom.

Abstract
The quantitative prediction of nonadiabatic transitions between different electronic states is important to understand ultrafast processes in photochemistry. A variety of mixed quantum-classical molecular dynamics methods such as surface hopping and Ehrenfest mean-field have been developed. However, how to choose an appropriate one from a wide diversity of dynamics algorithms to study a realistic photochemical process is still unclear. In this work, we implemented 30 combinations of different mixed quantum-classical dynamics methods, including 24 surface hopping models with 8 decoherence corrections and 3 momentum rescaling strategies as well as 6 mean-field models. Then we performed numerical investigations by simulating the photoisomerization of cis-azobenzene combined with on-the-fly electronic structure calculations. Predictions of the S1 lifetime and the quantum yield of the photoproduct using different models are distinct. Surface hopping is more robust than mean-field in our test system. Moreover, the choice of momentum rescaling methods in surface hopping brings more significant changes than decoherence corrections, while a large discrepancy between simulation results with different mean-field algorithms has been observed.

Abstract
A symmetrical quasiclassical (SQC) dynamics approach based on the Li-Miller (LM) mapping Hamiltonian (SQC-LM) was employed to describe nonadiabatic dynamics. In principle, the different initial sampling procedures may be applied in the SQC-LM dynamics, and the results may be dependent on different initial sampling. We provided various initial sampling approaches and checked their influence. We selected two groups of models including site-exciton models for exciton dynamics and linear vibronic coupling models for conical intersections to test the performance of SQC-LM dynamics with the different initial sampling methods. The results were examined with respect to those of the accurate multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) quantum dynamics. For both the models, the SQC-LM method more-or-less gives a reasonable description of the population dynamics, while the influence of the initial sampling approaches on the final results is noticeable. It seems that the suitable initial sampling methods should be determined by the system under study. This indicates that the combination of the SQC-LM method with a suitable sampling approach may be a potential method in the description of nonadiabatic dynamics.

Abstract
The mixed quantum-classical dynamical approaches have been widely used to study nonadiabatic phenomena in photochemistry and photobiology, in which the time evolutions of the electronic and nuclear subsystems are treated based on quantum and classical mechanics, respectively. The key issue is how to deal with coherence and decoherence during the propagation of the two subsystems, which has been the subject of numerous investigations for a few decades. A brief description on Ehrenfest mean-field and surface-hopping (SH) methods is first provided, and then different algorithms for treatment of quantum decoherence are reviewed in the present paper. More attentions were paid to quantum trajectory mean-field (QTMF) method under the picture of quantum measurements, which is able to overcome the overcoherence problem. Furthermore, the combined QTMF and SH algorithm is proposed in the present work, which takes advantages of the QTMF and SH methods. The potential to extend the applicability of the QTMF method was briefly discussed, such as the generalization to other type of nonadiabatic transitions, the combination with multiscale computational models, and possible improvements on its accuracy and efficiency by using machine-learning techniques.

Abstract
In the previous work of Cotton and Miller [J. Chem. Phys. 145, 144108 (2016)], an improved symmetrical quasi-classical (SQC) windowing model for the molecular dynamics treatment of electronically non-adiabatic processes was developed in order to extend the original SQC approach to the regime of weak-coupling between the electronic states. The improved SQC model-based on triangular-shaped window functions-handled the weak-coupling limit as intended and, as a bonus, was shown to be universally superior to the original square/histogram SQC windowing model over all coupling regimes, but only for treating systems of two electronic states, as no higher-dimensional generalization was evident. This paper, therefore, provides a generalized version for treating an arbitrary number of electronic states. By construction, the benefits of the two-state triangle model-seamless treatment of weak-coupling and improved accuracy in all coupling regimes-carry over to the generalized version. Far more significant, however, is that the new model provides vastly improved windowing statistics in higher dimensions, enabling the SQC simulation of electronically non-adiabatic processes involving many more relevant electronic states than was previously practical. Capabilities are demonstrated with respect to a 24 pigment trimer model of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson light-harvesting complex, as well as treating similar 48- and 96-electronic state model problems, illustrating the scaling properties of the new method.
