Numerical test of finite-size scaling predictions for the droplet condensation-evaporation transition
Andreas Nußbaumer, Johannes Zierenberg, Elmar Bittner +1
We numerically study the finite-size droplet condensation-evaporation transition in two dimensions. We consider and compare two orthogonal approaches, namely at fixed temperature a…
Replica-Exchange Cluster Algorithm
Wolfhard Janke, Elmar Bittner
In finite-size scaling analyses of Monte Carlo simulations of second-order phase transitions one often needs an extended temperature/energy range around the critical point. By comb…
Parallel-tempering cluster algorithm for computer simulations of critical phenomena
Elmar Bittner, Wolfhard Janke
In finite-size scaling analyses of Monte Carlo simulations of second-order phase transitions one often needs an extended temperature range around the critical point. By combining t…
Anisotropy of the interface tension of the three-dimensional Ising model
Elmar Bittner, Andreas Nußbaumer, Wolfhard Janke
We determine the interface tension for the 100, 110 and 111 interface of the simple cubic Ising model with nearest-neighbour interaction using novel simulation methods. To overcome…
Make life simple: unleash the full power of the parallel tempering algorithm
Elmar Bittner, Andreas Nussbaumer, Wolfhard Janke
We introduce a new update scheme to systematically improve the efficiency of parallel tempering simulations. We show that by adapting the number of sweeps between replica exchanges…
Monte Carlo study of the evaporation/condensation transition on different Ising lattices
Andreas Nußbaumer, Elmar Bittner, Wolfhard Janke
In 2002 Biskup et al. [Europhys. Lett. 60, 21 (2002)] sketched a rigorous proof for the behavior of the 2D Ising lattice gas, at a finite volume and a fixed excess δM of particles…
Nature of Phase Transitions in a Generalized Complex |psi|^4 Model
Elmar Bittner, Wolfhard Janke
We employ Monte Carlo simulations to study a generalized three-dimensional complex $psi|^4 theory of Ginzburg-Landau form and compare our numerical results with a recent quasi-anal…
