| Classical transition state theory has been extended to address chemical reactions across barriers that are driven and anharmonic. This resolves a challenge to the naive theory that necessarily leads to recrossings and approximate rates because it relies on a fixed dividing surface. We develop both perturbative and numerical methods for the computation of a time-dependent recrossing-free dividing surface for a model anharmonic system in a solvated environment that interacts strongly with an oscillatory external field. We extend our previous work, which relied either on a harmonic approximation or on periodic force driving. We demonstrate that the reaction rate, expressed as the long-time flux of reactive trajectories, can be extracted directly from the stability exponents, namely, Lyapunov exponents, of the moving dividing surface. Comparison to numerical results demonstrates the accuracy and robustness of this approach for the computation of optimal (recrossing-free) dividing surfaces and reaction rates in systems with Markovian solvation forces. The resulting reaction rates are in strong agreement with those determined from the long-time flux of reactive trajectories. | |
