What is Cyclic and helical symmetry-informed machine learned force fields: Application to lattice vibrations in carbon nanotubes about?

We present a formalism for developing cyclic and helical symmetry-informed machine learned force fields (MLFFs). In particular, employing the smooth overlap of atomic positions descriptors with the polynomial kernel method, we derive cyclic and helical symmetry-adapted expressions for the energy, atomic forces, and phonons (describe lattice vibration frequencies and modes). We use this formulation to construct a symmetry-informed MLFF for carbon nanotubes (CNTs), where the model is trained through Bayesian linear regression, with the data generated from ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations performed during on-the-fly symmetry-informed MLFF molecular dynamics simulations of representative CNTs. We demonstrate the accuracy of the MLFF model by comparisons with DFT calculations for the energies and forces, and density functional perturbation theory calculations for the phonons, while considering CNTs not used in the training. In particular, we obtain a root mean square error of $1.4 \times 10^{-4}$ Ha/atom, $4.7 \times 10^{-4}$ Ha/Bohr, and 4.8 cm$^{-1}$ in the energy, forces, and phonon frequencies, respectively, which are well within the accuracy targeted in ab ini
