CrystalGRW: generative modeling of crystal structures with targeted crystallographic properties via geodesic random walks

CrystalGRW is introduced, a diffusion-based generative model on Riemannian manifolds that proposes candidate crystal configurations in stable phases, validated through density functional theory calculations, thereby accelerating materials discovery and inverse design.

Pformer: a plug-and-play periodicity-aware embedding for crystal property prediction

Predicting macroscopic properties of crystalline materials from atomic structure remains a central challenge in computational materials science. We introduce Pformer, a modular crystal representation framework built around a Fourier-inspired source encoder. The source model is trained by supervised scalar-property re...

Transferable Graph Neural Network Surrogates for Molecular Dynamics Across Crystal Symmetries

We present a transferable graph neural network (GNN) surrogate framework for molecular dynamics (MD) that directly predicts atomic displacements and propagates atomistic configurations without explicit force evaluation or numerical time integration. The central objective of this work is to establish whether a common GN...

Symmetry-Aware Flow Matching for End-to-end Molecular Crystal Generation

Molecular crystal packing shapes properties from drug bioavailability to charge transport, yet generating realistic structures requires coordinating molecular flexibility, intermolecular interactions and symmetry. Here we introduce SALA, a flow-matching model built on state--context separation: it evolves only asymmetr...

One Path to Model Them All: Learnable-Time Flow Matching for Crystal Structure and Energy Prediction

Crystals are cornerstone materials for semiconductors and renewable energy, yet their discovery is hindered by the prohibitive cost of Density Functional Theory (DFT). While geometric graph neural networks have advanced Crystal Structure Prediction (CSP) and energy estimation, existing methods treat these tasks as disp...

Riemannian Flow Models with Reinforcement Learning for Molecular Crystal Structure Prediction

Crystal structure governs material properties, making crystal structure prediction (CSP) a fundamental problem in materials science. Generative models are a promising approach for solving this problem, but the prevalence of polymorphism, coupled with large unit cells and complex packing geometry, makes the molecular CS...
