Temperature Integration: an efficient procedure for calculation of free energy differences
Asaf Farhi, Guy Hed, Michael Bon +3
We propose a method, Temperature Integration, which allows an efficient calculation of free energy differences between two systems of interest, with the same degrees of freedom, wh…
Large-Scale Simulations of the Two-Dimensional Melting of Hard Disks
C. H. Mak
Large-scale computer simulations involving more than a million particles have been performed to study the melting transition in a two-dimensional hard disk fluid. The van der Waals…
A Multigrid Algorithm for Sampling Imaginary-Time Paths in Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations
C. H. Mak, Sergei Zakharov
We describe a novel simulation method that eliminates the slowing-down problem in the Monte Carlo simulations of imaginary-time path integrals near the continuum limit. This method…
Relieving the fermionic and the dynamical sign problem: Multilevel Blocking Monte Carlo simulations
R. Egger, C. H. Mak
This article gives an introduction to the multilevel blocking (MLB) approach to both the fermion and the dynamical sign problem in path-integral Monte Carlo simulations. MLB is abl…
Crossover from Fermi liquid to Wigner molecule behavior in quantum dots
R. Egger, W. Haeusler, C. H. Mak +1
The crossover from weak to strong correlations in parabolic quantum dots at zero magnetic field is studied by numerically exact path-integral Monte Carlo simulations for up to eigh…
Inter- and Intra-Chain Attractions in Solutions of Flexible Polyelectrolytes at Nonzero Concentration
J. C. Chu, C. H. Mak
Constant temperature molecular dynamics simulations were used to study solutions of flexible polyelectrolyte chains at nonzero concentrations with explicit counterions and unscreen…
