The Single Histogram Method and the Quantum Harmonic Oscillator: Accuracy Limits
W. F. Oquendo, J. D. Munoz
In a recent work, M. Troyer, F. Alet and S. Wessel \cite{brazilean} proposed a way to extend histogram methods to quantum systems in the World Line Quantum Monte Carlo (WLQMC) form…
A Cellular Automaton Model for the Traffic Flow in Bogota
L. E. Olmos, J. D. Munoz
In this work we propose a car cellular automaton model that reproduces the experimental behavior of traffic flows in Bogotá. Our model includes three elements: hysteresis between t…
Equilibrium Times for the Multicanonical Method
M. L. Guerra, J. D. Munoz
This work measures the time to equilibrium for the multicanonical method on the 2D-Ising system by using a new criterion, proposed here, to find the time to equilibrium, teq, of an…
Kinematic solar dynamo models with a deep meridional flow
G. A. Guerrero, J. D. Muñoz
We develop two different solar dynamo models to verify the hypothesis that a deep meridional flow can restrict the apperance of sunspots below 45 degrees, proposed by Nandy & Choud…
Rejection-free Monte Carlo Algorithms for Models with Continuous Degrees of Freedom
J. D. Munoz, M. A. Novotny, S. J. Mitchell
We construct a rejection-free Monte Carlo algorithm for a system with continuous degrees of freedom. We illustrate the algorithm by applying it to the classical three-dimensional H…
The XY-model with Symmetry: Finite-size scaling analysis using the Broad Histogram Method
J. D. Munoz, A. R. Lima
In this work we investigate the classical ferromagnetic XY-model in two dimensions subject to a symmetry breaking field which impose a symmetry to the system. We used the bro…
