Efficient simulation of the random-cluster model

Abstract: The simulation of spin models close to critical points of continuous phase transitions is heavily impeded by the occurrence of critical slowing down. A number of cluster algorithms, usually based on the Fortuin-Kasteleyn representation of the Potts model, and suitable generalizations for continuousspin models have been used to increase simulation efficiency. The first algorithm making use of this representation, suggested by Sweeny in 1983, has not found widespread adoption due to problems in its implementatio… Show more

“…For the integer values Q = 1, 2, 3, and 4, our simulations were performed using the Swendsen-Wang algorithm [29]. For Q = 0.5, we used a recent implementation of Sweeny's single-bond method [30] based on a poly-logarithmic connectivity algorithm [31]. For TABLE II.…”

“…Doing so requires to scan a number of bonds proportional to the typical size of the clusters. Close to the phase transition the clusters grow with the volume according to some critical exponent β and the computational cost hence grows like O(L β ) [26]. In contrast, a nearly-optimal solution for the fully-dynamic connectivity problem makes use of a spanning forest of Euler tour trees [27,28] in order to maintain a data structure which allows for an efficient checking of the bridge property.…”

“…There are a few efficient methods [25] to simulate the RC model. In the present paper, we combine the colorassignation [26,27] and the Swendsen-Wang [28] methods together to design a highly efficient cluster algorithm with a small critical slowing-down phenomenon.…”
