Tempered Fermions in the Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm
arXiv:hep-lat/9712012 · doi:10.1016/S0920-5632(97)00495-7
Abstract
Parallel tempering simulates at many quark masses simultaneously, by changing the mass during the simulation while remaining in equilibrium. The algorithm is faster than pure HMC if more than one mass is needed, and works better the smaller the smallest mass is.
