New method computes protein free-energy density using SDP algorithm

Researchers have developed a new method to compute the free-energy density of proteins by framing it as an unbalanced constraint satisfaction problem. This approach utilizes a polynomial-time semidefinite programming (SDP) algorithm to explore alternative backbone conformations and identify flexible regions within proteins, such as Ubiquitin, while maintaining their native secondary structures.

    Conditioned free-energy density of proteins using unbalanced solutions to constraint satisfaction problems

    arXiv:2606.01329v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We show that computing the log-partition function (free-energy) of conditioned inhomogeneous Curie--Weiss spin Hamiltonians reduces to an unbalanced $2 \to 1$ norm computation, and design a polynomial-time SDP algorithm for this pro…
