Abstract:
We present a brief summary of the different geometric tools that we developed over the last 15 years to model hybrid quantum-classical systems. Usually obtained as an approximation of an initially full quantum model where two different mass or time scales exist, these models offer a very useful framework for numerical simulations of molecular systems. We will review the geometrical formulation of the dynamics of such systems and their use in the context of hybrid quantum-classical statistical mechanics.
