Cluster Monte Carlo dynamics for the antiferromagnetic Ising model on a triangular lattice
G. M. Zhang, C. Z. Yang
Abstract
Within the general cluster framework of Kandel, Ben-Av, and Domany, we develop a cluster algorithm for Monte Carlo simulations of the antiferromagnetic Ising model on a triangular lattice. The algorithm does not suffer from problems of metastability and is extremely efficient even at T=0, which allows us to extract the static exponent \ensuremath{\eta}=0.5 as well as the effective dynamical critical exponent of the algorithm z=0.64\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02.
