Lie equation

With this pathway, the separation between the electrostatic and van der Waals contributions in the LIE equation (12.61) is only approximate. Indeed, the vertical,... 

Our initial parametrization of the LIE equation was subsequently used for HIV protease and trypsin inhibitors as well as in a study of sugar binding to a bacterial receptor protein. While it was at first suspected that a... 

The more general LIE equation examined in Ref. 26 was thus written as... 

It is noteworthy that the MD simulations, even without reparametrization of the LIE equation, gives a good ranking of the rather diverse set of thrombin inhibitors. The calculations thus reproduce, e.g., the large affinity difference between the S-form of Tla, which is a potent inhibitor in the nM... 

The results for thrombin show that our previous parametrization of the LIE coefficients holds rather well in this case, provided that a constant term of -2.9 kcal/mol is added. At present it is not clear to us why thrombin would require such a constant term while, e.g., trypsin does not, but this issue is currently under investigation (see also Ref. 47 for a discussion of thrombin versus trypsin). Furthermore, one should note that with our computational procedures and the Gromos87 force field the results for thrombin inhibitors differ from those of Ref. 35 as well as Ref. 43. That is to say, three independent studies involving thrombin inhibitors have arrived at significantly different parametrizations of the LIE equation, that in all cases reproduce the experimental data well. It therefore seems clear that the differences in the computational procedures have a definite effect on the parameters of the binding energy approximation. 

It may be appropriate here to point out that the points above are not specific for LIE type of calculations but apply equally well to FEP simulations. It is our feeling that the differences between some of the various parametrizations of the LIE equation reported in the literature may in part have their origin in varying computational procedures, particularly with respect to points (i-iii) above.

As a simple example we will calculate the density-density response function, N(oo). The lie equation has been derived in Ref. 3 for the one-cut-off problem... 

To this end, in deriving the lie equations for the invariant couplings the following approximations are made... 

Equation (5.12), known as the Lie equation of evolution for a dynamic system, is obtained directly from (5.8) by differentiating with respect to the scale. In quantum field theory [2], Eq. (5.12) often is called the Gell-Mann Low equation or the equation for an invariant charge. The generator / (/o) frequently is referred to as the Gell-Mann function. The infinitesimal generators corresponding to the three functions of Eqs. (5.9)-(5.11) are...

The Lie equations of the generalized propagator renormalization group can be derived directly from the functional equations (5.57) and (5.65). Thus, by differentiating the first of these with respect to the group parameter t we obtain an expression... 

The pair of Lie equations (5.84) and (5.87) govern the evolution of the dynamical system 6f t g). As we previously have emphasized, the effective coupling function must be determined self-consistently, as a function of Sf. This critical step in the procedure is accomplished by expressing the generator P g) as the following functional of the object function df ... 

Fixed points that are stable in the limit t co are those for which df g)/dg g gt < 0. The approximate solutions obtained by solving the Lie equations are dependent on the initial estimates of the infinitesimal generators /t and y and these, in turn, depend functionally on the initial estimate that one has adopted for the excess quantity df t g). 

Generally speaking, the results of RG Lie equation calculations are functionals of the initial approximation selected for the object function (here the propagator amplitude). The more accurate the initial approximation, the better are the expected results. For example, if we begin with the first-order (in powers of a) approximation [cf. (5.210)]... 

The Lie equations for Sf x g) and g x, g) are obtained by differentiating the corresponding functional equations (5.277) and (5.282) with respect to t and X, respectively, and then setting these variables equal to zero. One thereby obtains the equations... 

To proceed further, we shall use the Lie equations, and hence need an initial approximation for the excess viscosity (valid for small volume fractions) from which estimates of the infinitesimal generators can be constructed. At the present time, very little information of this type exists. Indeed, reliable values are available only for the second- and third-order coefficients V2 and 3 appearing in the viscosity virial expansion... 

The second of these two formulas provides the information needed to solve the Lie equation (5.284) and so to conclude that...
