Abstract
Applying an excess entropy scaling formalism to the coarse-grained (CG) dynamics of liquids, we discovered that missing rotational motions during the CG process are responsible for artificially accelerated CG dynamics. In the context of the dynamic representability between the fine-grained (FG) and CG dynamics, this work introduces the well-known Stokes-Einstein and Stokes-Einstein-Debye relations to unravel the rotational dynamics underlying FG trajectories, thereby allowing for an indirect evaluation of the effective rotations based only on the translational information at the reduced CG resolution. Since the representability issue in CG modeling limits a direct evaluation of the shear stress appearing in the Stokes-Einstein and Stokes-Einstein-Debye relations, we introduce a translational relaxation time as a proxy to employ these relations, and we demonstrate that these relations hold for the ambient conditions studied in our series of work. Additional theoretical links to our previous work are also established. First, we demonstrate that the effective hard sphere radius determined by the classical perturbation theory can approximate the complex hydrodynamic radius value reasonably well. Furthermore, we present a simple derivation of an excess entropy scaling relationship for viscosity by estimating the elliptical integral of molecules. In turn, since the translational and rotational motions at the FG level are correlated to each other, we conclude that the "entropy-free" CG diffusion only depends on the shape of the reference molecule. Our results and analyses impart an alternative way of recovering the FG diffusion from the CG description by coupling the translational and rotational motions at the hydrodynamic level.

Abstract
This paper series aims to establish a complete correspondence between fine-grained (FG) and coarse-grained (CG) dynamics by way of excess entropy scaling (introduced in Paper I). While Paper II successfully captured translational motions in CG systems using a hard sphere mapping, the absence of rotational motions in single-site CG models introduces differences between FG and CG dynamics. In this third paper, our objective is to faithfully recover atomistic diffusion coefficients from CG dynamics by incorporating rotational dynamics. By extracting FG rotational diffusion, we unravel, for the first time reported to our knowledge, a universality in excess entropy scaling between the rotational and translational diffusion. Once the missing rotational dynamics are integrated into the CG translational dynamics, an effective translation-rotation coupling becomes essential. We propose two different approaches for estimating this coupling parameter: the rough hard sphere theory with acentric factor (temperature-independent) or the rough Lennard-Jones model with CG attractions (temperature-dependent). Altogether, we demonstrate that FG diffusion coefficients can be recovered from CG diffusion coefficients by (1) incorporating "entropy-free" rotational diffusion with translation-rotation coupling and (2) recapturing the missing entropy. Our findings shed light on the fundamental relationship between FG and CG dynamics in molecular fluids.

Abstract
Diffusion in a multidimensional energy surface with minima and barriers is a problem of importance in statistical mechanics and it also has wide applications, such as protein folding. To understand it in such a system, we carry out theory and simulations of a tagged particle moving on a two-dimensional periodic potential energy surface, both in the presence and absence of noise. Langevin dynamics simulations at multiple temperatures are carried out to obtain the diffusion coefficient of a solute particle. Friction is varied from zero to large values. Diffusive motion emerges in the limit of a long time, even in the absence of noise. Noise destroys the correlations and increases diffusion at small friction. Diffusion thus exhibits a nonmonotonic friction dependence at the intermediate value of the damping, ultimately converging to our theoretically predicted value. The latter is obtained using the well-established relationship between diffusion and random walk. An excellent agreement is obtained between theory and simulations in the high-friction limit but not so in the intermediate regime. We explain the deviation in the low- to intermediate-friction regime using the modified random walk theory. The rate of escape from one cell to another is obtained from the multidimensional rate theory of Langer. We find that enhanced dimensionality plays an important role. To quantify the effects of noise on the potential-imposed coherence on the trajectories, we calculate the Lyapunov exponent. At small friction values, the Lyapunov exponent mimics the friction dependence of the rate.

Abstract
The first paper of this series [J. Chem. Phys. 158, 034103 (2023)] demonstrated that excess entropy scaling holds for both fine-grained and corresponding coarse-grained (CG) systems. Despite its universality, a more exact determination of the scaling relationship was not possible due to the semi-empirical nature. In this second paper, an analytical excess entropy scaling relation is derived for bottom-up CG systems. At the single-site CG resolution, effective hard sphere systems are constructed that yield near-identical dynamical properties as the target CG systems by taking advantage of how hard sphere dynamics and excess entropy can be analytically expressed in terms of the liquid packing fraction. Inspired by classical equilibrium perturbation theories and recent advances in constructing hard sphere models for predicting activated dynamics of supercooled liquids, we propose a new approach for understanding the diffusion of molecular liquids in the normal regime using hard sphere reference fluids. The proposed "fluctuation matching" is designed to have the same amplitude of long wavelength density fluctuations (dimensionless compressibility) as the CG system. Utilizing the Enskog theory to derive an expression for hard sphere diffusion coefficients, a bridge between the CG dynamics and excess entropy is then established. The CG diffusion coefficient can be roughly estimated using various equations of the state, and an accurate prediction of accelerated CG dynamics at different temperatures is also possible in advance of running any CG simulation. By introducing another layer of coarsening, these findings provide a more rigorous method to assess excess entropy scaling and understand the accelerated CG dynamics of molecular fluids.

Abstract
Coarse-grained (CG) models facilitate an efficient exploration of complex systems by reducing the unnecessary degrees of freedom of the fine-grained (FG) system while recapitulating major structural correlations. Unlike structural properties, assessing dynamic properties in CG modeling is often unfeasible due to the accelerated dynamics of the CG models, which allows for more efficient structural sampling. Therefore, the ultimate goal of the present series of articles is to establish a better correspondence between the FG and CG dynamics. To assess and compare dynamical properties in the FG and the corresponding CG models, we utilize the excess entropy scaling relationship. For Paper I of this series, we provide evidence that the FG and the corresponding CG counterpart follow the same universal scaling relationship. By carefully reviewing and examining the literature, we develop a new theory to calculate excess entropies for the FG and CG systems while accounting for entropy representability. We demonstrate that the excess entropy scaling idea can be readily applied to liquid water and methanol systems at both the FG and CG resolutions. For both liquids, we reveal that the scaling exponents remain unchanged from the coarse-graining process, indicating that the scaling behavior is universal for the same underlying molecular systems. Combining this finding with the concept of mapping entropy in CG models, we show that the missing entropy plays an important role in accelerating the CG dynamics.

Abstract
Large-scale computational molecular models provide scientists a means to investigate the effect of microscopic details on emergent mesoscopic behavior. Elucidating the relationship between variations on the molecular scale and macroscopic observable properties facilitates an understanding of the molecular interactions driving the properties of real world materials and complex systems (e.g., those found in biology, chemistry, and materials science). As a result, discovering an explicit, systematic connection between microscopic nature and emergent mesoscopic behavior is a fundamental goal for this type of investigation. The molecular forces critical to driving the behavior of complex heterogeneous systems are often unclear. More problematically, simulations of representative model systems are often prohibitively expensive from both spatial and temporal perspectives, impeding straightforward investigations over possible hypotheses characterizing molecular behavior. While the reduction in resolution of a study, such as moving from an atomistic simulation to that of the resolution of large coarse-grained (CG) groups of atoms, can partially ameliorate the cost of individual simulations, the relationship between the proposed microscopic details and this intermediate resolution is nontrivial and presents new obstacles to study. Small portions of these complex systems can be realistically simulated. Alone, these smaller simulations likely do not provide insight into collectively emergent behavior. However, by proposing that the driving forces in both smaller and larger systems (containing many related copies of the smaller system) have an explicit connection, systematic bottom-up CG techniques can be used to transfer CG hypotheses discovered using a smaller scale system to a larger system of primary interest. The proposed connection between different CG systems is prescribed by (i) the CG representation (mapping) and (ii) the functional form and parameters used to represent the CG energetics, which approximate potentials of mean force (PMFs). As a result, the design of CG methods that facilitate a variety of physically relevant representations, approximations, and force fields is critical to moving the frontier of systematic CG forward. Crucially, the proposed connection between the system used for parametrization and the system of interest is orthogonal to the optimization used to approximate the potential of mean force present in all systematic CG methods. The empirical efficacy of machine learning techniques on a variety of tasks provides strong motivation to consider these approaches for approximating the PMF and analyzing these approximations.

Abstract
A theory of barrier crossing rate on a multidimensional reaction energy surface is presented. The theory is a generalization of the earlier theoretical schemes to higher dimensions, with the inclusion of non-Markovian friction along both the reactive and the nonreactive coordinates. The theory additionally includes the bilinear coupling between the reactive and the nonreactive modes at the Hamiltonian level. Under suitable conditions, we recover the rate expressions of Langer and Hynes and establish a connection with the rate treatment of Pollak. Within the phenomenology of generalized Langevin equation description, our formulation provides an improvement over the existing ones because we explicitly include both the non-Markovian effects along the reaction coordinate and the bilinear coupling at the Hamiltonian level. At intermediate-to-large friction, an increase in dimensionality by itself tends to reduce the rate, while the inclusion of the memory effects increases the rate. The theory predicts an increase in rate when off-diagonal friction terms are included. We present a model calculation to study isomerization of a stilbene-like molecule using the prescription of Hochstrasser and co-workers on a two-dimensional reaction energy surface, employing Zwanzig–Bixon hydrodynamic theory of frequency-dependent friction. The calculated rate shows a departure from the predictions of Langer’s theory and also from the two-dimensional transition state theory.

Abstract
The dissociation of an insulin dimer is an important biochemical event that could also serve as a prototype of dissociations in similar biomolecular assemblies. We use a recently developed multidimensional free energy landscape for insulin dimer dissociation to unearth the microscopic and mechanistic aspects of the initial stages of the process that could hold the key to understanding the stability and the rate. The following sequence of events occurs in the initial stages: (i) The backbone hydrogen bonds break partially at the antiparallel β-sheet junction, (ii) the two α-helices (chain B) move away from each other while several residues (chain A) move closer, and (iii) a flow of adjacent water molecules occurs into the junction region. Interestingly, the intermonomeric center-to-center distance does not increase, but the number of native contacts exhibits a sharp decrease. Subsequent steps involve further disengagement of hydrophobic groups. This process is slow because of an entropic bottleneck created by the existence of the large configuration space available in the native state (NS), which is inhabited by low-frequency conformational fluctuations. We carry out a density-of-states analyses in the dimer NS to unearth distinctive features not present in the monomers. These low-frequency modes are also responsible for a large entropic stabilization of the NS. Hydrophobic disengagement in the early stage leads to the formation of a twisted intermediate state which itself is a metastable minimum (IS-1). The subsequent progress leads to another dimeric complex (IS-2), which is on the dissociative pathway and characterized by a further decrease in the native contacts. The dissociation process provides insights into the workings of a biomolecular assembly.
