Smolyak Algorithm Adapted to a System-Bath Separation: Application to an Encapsulated Molecule with Large-Amplitude Motions. Journal of chemical theory and computation : JCTC, https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jctc.2c00108

A Smolyak algorithm adapted to system-bath separation is proposed for rigorous quantum simulations. This technique combines a sparse grid method with the system-bath concept in a specific configuration without limitations on the form of the Hamiltoni...
