Abstract Given two distinct subsets A, B in the state space of some dynamical system, transition path theory (TPT) was successfully used to describe the statistical behavior of transitions from A to B in the ergodic limit of the stationary system. We derive generalizations of TPT that remove the requirements of stationarity and of the ergodic limit and provide this powerful tool for the analysis of other dynamical scenarios: periodically forced dynamics and time-dependent finite-time systems. This is partially motivated by studying applications such as climate, ocean, and social dynamics. On simple model examples, we show how the new tools are able to deliver quantitative understanding about the statistical behavior of such systems. We also point out explicit cases where the more general dynamical regimes show different behaviors to their stationary counterparts, linking these tools directly to bifurcations in non-deterministic systems.

Replica Exchange Molecular Dynamics (REMD) is a widely used enhanced sampling method for accelerating biomolecular simulations. During the past two decades, several variants of REMD have been developed to further improve the rate of conformational sampling of REMD. One such variant, Reservoir REMD (RREMD), was shown to improve the rate of conformational sampling by around 5-20x. Despite the significant increase in sampling speed, RREMD methods have not been widely used due to the difficulties in building the reservoir and also due to the code not being available on the GPUs.<br><br>In this work, we ported the AMBER RREMD code onto GPUs making it 20x faster than the CPU code. Then, we explored protocols for building Boltzmann-weighted reservoirs as well as non-Boltzmann reservoirs, and tested how each choice affects the accuracy of the resulting RREMD simulations. We show that, using the recommended protocols outlined here, RREMD simulations can accurately reproduce Boltzmann-weighted ensembles obtained by much more expensive conventional REMD simulations, with at least 15x faster convergence rates even for larger proteins (>50 amino acids) compared to conventional REMD.
