Cluster algorithms for frustrated two dimensional Ising antiferromagnets via dual worm constructions (1612.00851v1)
Published 2 Dec 2016 in cond-mat.stat-mech
Abstract: We report on the development of two dual worm constructions that lead to cluster algorithms for efficient and ergodic Monte Carlo simulations of frustrated Ising models with arbitrary two-spin interactions that extend up to third-neighbours on the triangular lattice. One of these algorithms generalizes readily to other frustrated systems, such as Ising antiferromagnets on the Kagome lattice with further neighbour couplings. We characterize the performance of both these algorithms in a challenging regime with power-law correlations at finite wavevector.
