The authors have examined the effects on the fundamental behavior of the dynamics of applying constraints to control the aphysical flow of zero-point energy in classical trajectories of molecular systems. Test calculations on the popular Henon-Heiles potential surface show that these constraints can induce physically undesirable effects in the dynamics, e.g., changing quasiperiodic motion (characterized by a few discrete frequencies) into chaotic motion (characterized by a continuous distribution of frequencies).
