Boltzmann generators for amorphous particle systems

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2512.16607v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sampling configurations in thermodynamic equilibrium is a long-standing challenge in statistical physics. Boltzmann generators address this problem by employing generative models to propose independent configurations, which are then reweighted via importance sampling using exact likelihood evaluations. Recent Boltzmann Generators based on continuous normalizing flows and flow matching have achieved significant success for particle systems and biomolecules. However, these approaches have not been extended to amorphous materials (glasses), for which equilibrium sampling is notoriously slow. Because of their disordered structure, the invariances and geometrical constraints of amorphous materials differ from those of crystals and biomol
