Generalized pseudopotential theory (GPT) provides a first-principles approach to transferable multi-ion interatomic potentials for transition metals within DFT quantum mechanics. In mid-period transition metals, a simplified model GPT (MGPT) has been developed using canonical d bands to allow analytic forms and large-scale atomistic simulations. Recent advances have led to a more general matrix representation of MGPT beyond canonical bands, allowing improved accuracy, extensions to f-electron actinide metals and series-end transition metals, an order of magnitude increase in computational speed for MD simulations, and the development of electron-temperature-dependent potentials. In addition, in the appropriate limit, GPT can also be used to calculate first-principles many-body central-force potentials for non-transition metals as well. The fast matrix MGPT is now implemented as a USER-MGPT package on LAMMPS. This package can also run non-transition-metal GPT potentials.\r\n\r\nMaterials\r\nMost elemental metals and Al-TM alloys for 3d transition metals. \r\n\r\nCurrent open-source availability: Ta, Mo and V over wide volume ranges as part of the USER-MGPT package on LAMMPS \r\n\r\nComing soon: selected additional GPT and MGPT potentials are being reformatted and updated for inclusion on LAMMPS \r\n\r\nBibliography\r\nhttps://scholar.google.com/citations?user=nWuHgC8AAAAJ&hl=en \r\nhttps://www.researchgate.net/profile/John_Moriarty2 \r\n\r\nA few key papers: \r\n\r\nEfficient Wide-Range Calculation of Free Energies in Solids and Liquids using Reversible Scaling Molecular Dynamics \r\nJ.
