Comment on ``A Comparison Between Broad Histogram and Multicanonical Methods''
M. Kastner, M. Promberger
A recent paper by A. R. Lima, P. M. C. de Oliveira, and T. J. P. Penna [cond-mat/0002176; J. Stat. Phys. 99:691 (2000)], seems to contain at least two mistakes which deserve commen…
Consistency of Microcanonical and Canonical Finite-Size Scaling
M. Kastner, M. Promberger
Typically, in order to obtain finite-size scaling laws for quantities in the microcanonical ensemble, an assumption is taken as a starting point. In this paper, consistency of such…
Magnetic Properties of Finite Systems: Microcanonical Finite Size Scaling
Michael Promberger, Michael Kastner, Alfred Hueller
In the microcanonical ensemble, suitably defined observables show non-analyticities and power law behaviour even for finite systems. For these observables, a microcanonical finite-…
On a trivial aspect of canonical specific heat scaling
M. Promberger
We show that the canonical finite size scaling of the specific heat emerges naturally - and in some sense trivially - from the assumption that the microcanonical specific entropy e…
