Information theory, atoms in molecules, and molecular similarity.
Using information theory, it is argued that from among possible definitions of what an atom is when it is in a molecule, a particular one merits special attention. Namely, it is the atom defined by the "stockholders partitioning" of a molecule invented by Hirshfeld [(1977) Theor. Chim. Acta 44, 129]. The theoretical tool used is the minimum entropy deficiency principle (minimum missing informat...
متن کاملEnergies of Organic Molecules and Atoms in Density Functional Theory
In the assessment of density functional approximations for the exchangecorrelation energy, great weight is usually given to the accuracy of molecular atomization energies, or the enthalpies of formation constructed from calculated atomization energies. Here we show that a recent non-empirical functional, the meta-generalized gradient approximation of Tao, Perdew, Staroverov, and Scuseria, achie...
متن کاملMolecular Docking Based on Virtual Screening, Molecular Dynamics and Atoms in Molecules Studies to Identify the Potential Human Epidermal Receptor 2 Intracellular Domain Inhibitors
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family having tyrosine kinase activity. Overexpression of HER2 usually causes malignant transformation of cells and is responsible for the breast cancer. In this work, the virtual screening, molecular docking, quantum mechanics and molecular dynamics methods were employed to study protein–ligand ...
متن کاملThe Thomas - Fermi - von Weizsacker Theory of Atoms and Molecules *
We place the Thomas-Fermi-von Weizsacker model of atoms on a firm mathematical footing. We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions of the Thomas-Fermi-von Weizsacker equation as well as the fact that they minimize the Thomas-Fermi-von Weizsacker energy functional. Moreover, we prove the existence of binding for two very dissimilar atoms in the frame of this model. Introduction The Thomas-Fe...
متن کاملThe Thomas-Fermi Theory of Atoms, Molecules and Solids
We place the Thomas-Fermi model of the quantum theory of atoms, molecules, and solids on a firm mathematical footing. Our results include: (1) A proof of existence and uniqueness of solutions of the nonlinear Thomas-Fermi equations as well as the fact that these solutions minimize the Thomas-Fermi energy functional, (2) a proof that in a suitable large nuclear charge limit, the quantum mechanic...
