A fundamental problem in molecular dynamics is the relation between the frequency-dependent friction of a molecule in a liquid and the hydrodynamic properties of the liquid. We investigate this connection in the case of a water molecule moving in liquid water using all-atomistic molecular dynamics simulations and linear hydrodynamic theory. For this, we analytically calculate the frequency-dependent friction of a sphere with finite surface slip moving in a non-Newtonian compressible fluid by solving the linear transient Stokes equation, including frequency-dependent shear and volume viscosities, which are both determined from MD simulations of bulk liquid water. By fitting the effective sphere radius and the slip length, the frequency-dependent friction and velocity autocorrelation function from the transient Stokes equation and simulations quantitatively agree with the frequency-dependent friction of a single water molecule moving in liquid water, as defined by the generalized Langevin equation from MD simulation trajectories, provided accurate frequency-dependent viscosities are used.
