Geodesic costs on a scalar field over the periodic table predict diatomic bond dissociation energies

Abstract We construct a scalar configuration field $$\Phi $$ on the periodic table lattice from z -score-normalized first ionization energy and covalent radius, with a single coupling parameter $$\lambda $$ fixed a priori . Geodesic costs computed on this field via Dijkstra’s alg...
