This work describes a general energy functional formulation of a polarizable embedding QM/MM scheme, as well as an implementation where a real-space Grid-based Projector Augmented Wave (GPAW) DFT method is coupled with a potential function for H<sub>2</sub>O based on a Single Center Multipole Expansion (SCME) of the electrostatics, including anisotropic dipole and quadrupole polarizability.

The manuscript analyzes the accuracy of our recently developed reciprocal polarizable embedding scheme, where a density functional theory model of the QM region is coupled to a dipole- and quadrupole polarizable water potential of the MM region. We present calculations of water clusters and liquid water where we analyze the energy, atomic forces and total polarization to demonstrate that artifacts in energy and polarization introduced by the QM/MM coupling are small and well-behaved. Furthermore, our methodology improves the consistency of the structure of optimized water hexamer geometries when compared to results obtained with models that neglect polarization. Additionally, the manuscript provides evidence that our coupling scheme eliminates artifacts in the structure of liquid water obtained with simpler electrostatic embedding models.

We present a computational protocol exploiting polarizable embedding hybrid quantum-classical approach and resulting in accurate estimates of redox potentials of biological macromolecules. A special attention is paid to fundamental aspects of the theoretical description such as the effects of environment polarization and of the long-range electrostatic interactions on the computed energetic parameters.
