23 Apr 2001 | Journal: | J. Stat. Phys. vol 106, 245 (2002). | Subject: | Statistical Mechanics | cond-mat.stat-mech | Abstract: | We present a formalism of the transition matrix Monte Carlo method. A stochastic matrix in the space of energy can be estimated from Monte Carlo simulation. This matrix is used to compute the density of states, as well as to construct multi-canonical and equal-hit algorithms. We discuss the performance of the methods. The results are compared with single histogram method, multi-canonical method, and other methods. In many aspects, the present method is an improvement over the previous methods. PACS numbers: 02.70.Tt, 05.10.Ln, 05.50.+q. Keywords: Monte Carlo method, flat histogram, multi-canonical ensemble. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0104418 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
