摘要
A homotopy method is presented that locates both minimizers and saddle points of energy functions in an efficient manner. In contrast to other methods, it makes possible the exploration of large parts of potential energy surfaces. Along a homotopy path stationary points of odd and even order occur alternately. A path tracing procedure requiring only gradients and at most one evaluation of the Hessian matrix is given. Test results on a model potential and three MINDO/3 potentials are reported.
