Reply to comment on “Checking the influence of numerically induced chaos in the computational study of intramolecular dynamics using trajectory equivalence”

Time evolutions of mode energies averaged over equivalent trajectories are presented for an uncoupled two-dimensional harmonic oscillator. The mode energies hardly show any significant damping. Hence, our previous interpretation that the excessive damping observed for HOD was due to the onset of numerically induced chaos caused by the coupling terms in the Hamiltonian is upheld.
