Collapse transition of a Lennard Jones polymer

Stefan Schnabel, Wolfhard Janke

Using the recently introduced parsimonious Metropolis algorithm bead-stick polymers both with infinite-range Lennard-Jones interaction and with truncation are simulated. The focus…

Surveying an Energy Landscape

Stefan Schnabel, Wolfhard Janke

We derive a formula that expresses the density of states of a system with continuous degrees of freedom as a function of microcanonical averages of squared gradient and Laplacian o…

Monte Carlo Simulation of Long Hard-Sphere Polymer Chains in Two to Five Dimensions

Stefan Schnabel, Wolfhard Janke

We perform simulations for long hard-sphere polymer chains using a recently developed binary-tree based Monte Carlo method. Systems in two to five dimensions with free and periodic…

Fast, hierarchical, and adaptive algorithm for Metropolis Monte Carlo simulations of long-range interacting systems

Fabio Müller, Henrik Christiansen, Stefan Schnabel +1

We present a fast, hierarchical, and adaptive algorithm for Metropolis Monte Carlo simulations of systems with long-range interactions that reproduces the dynamics of a standard im…

A simple algorithm for uniform sampling on the surface of a hypersphere

Stefan Schnabel, Wolfhard Janke

We propose a simple method for uniform sampling of points on the surface of a hypersphere in arbitrarily many dimensions. By avoiding the evaluation of computationally expensive fu…

Wang-Landau simulations with non-flat distributions

Stefan Schnabel, Wolfhard Janke

We show how the well-known Wang-Landau method can be modified to produce non-flat distributions. Through the choice of a suitable profile this can lead to an increase in efficiency…
