Monte Carlo Simulations of Interacting Anyon Chains

Abstract
A generalized version of the valence-bond Monte Carlo method is used to study ground state properties of the 1+1 dimensional quantum -state Potts models. For appropriate values of these models can be used to describe interacting chains of non-Abelian anyons --- quasiparticle excitations of certain exotic fractional quantum Hall states.
