Generalized Langevin dynamics simulations with arbitrary time‐dependent memory kernels

An algorithm is described that allows dynamical simulations to be performed based on generalized Langevin equations with arbitrary, time‐dependent memory kernels. Test simulations show that good results are obtained for kernels with distinctly different forms (e.g., exponential and Gaussian).
