abstract

We present a new Monte Carlo algorithm that produces results of high accuracy with reduced simulational effort. Independent random walks are performed (concurrently or serially) in different, restricted ranges of energy, and the resultant density of states is modified continuously to produce locally flat histograms. This method permits us to directly access the free energy and entropy, is independent of temperature, and is efficient for the study of both 1st order and 2nd order phase transitions. It should also be useful for the study of complex systems with a rough energy landscape.

Effective strings and particles interacting in 3D: the Ising model

hep-th · 2026-04-09 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

In the 3D Ising model, a fluctuating domain wall interacts with bulk particles such that large-distance corrections to free energy and correlation tails are controlled by a single renormalized coupling λ in the nearly on-shell regime.
