Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Foundations of Free Energy Computational Methods
Statistical mechanics provides a rigorous framework for the numerical estimation of free energy differences in complex systems such as biomolecules. This paper presents a brief review of the statistical mechanical identities underlying a number of techniq
