Abstract

We performed a numerical simulation of X-Y model on the two-dimensional random lattice using cluster update algorithm. The critical region was found around β ≈ 1.0 by the peaks in the specific heat and the susceptibility. The autocorrelation in energy and the square of magnetization was also calculated. The results show that the critical slowing down was greatly reduced.

In order to reduce the critical slowing down in Monte Carlo simulations, a numerical study for the Ising model on 3-D random lattice using Swendsen-Wang algorithm is performed. The critical point obtained is βc=0. 075±0. 001. Moreover, to analyse the dynamical property of Swendsen-Wang method, the dynamical critical exponent z is estimated. The result is z =0. 74 ±0. 03. This indicates that the Swendsen-Wang method can greatly reduce the critical slowing down for the Ising model on 3-D random lattice.

Critical dynamics of cluster algorithms in the random-bond Ising model

Ulvi Kanbur, Zeynep Demir Vatansever

In the present work, we present an extensive Monte Carlo simulation study on the dynamical properties of the two-dimensional random-bond Ising model. The correlation time τ of the Swendsen-Wang and Wolff cluster algorithms is calculated at the critical point. The dynamic critical exponent z of both algorithms is also measured by using the numerical data for several lattice sizes up to L=512. It is found for both algorithms that the autocorrelation time decreases considerably and the critical slowing-down effect reduces upon the introduction of bond disorder. Additionally, simulations with the Metropolis algorithm are performed, and the critical slowing-down effect is observed to be more pronounced in the presence of disorder, confirming the previous findings in the literature. Moreover, the existence of the non-self-averaging property of the model is demonstrated by calculating the scaled form of the standard deviation of autocorrelation times. Finally, the critical exponent ratio of the magnetic susceptibility is estimated by using the average cluster size of the Wolff algorithm.

Critical Behavior Simulation of the Two-Dimensional Ising Model—A Computational Physics Study Based on the Monte Carlo Method

佳钢李

To demonstrate the application of computational physics in modern statistical physics, this paper investigates the critical behavior of a finite-size ferromagnetic system based on the two-dimensional square-lattice Ising model.A nearest-neighbor Ising Hamiltonian is constructed, and periodic boundary conditions are adopted to reduce finite-boundary effects.The Metropolis Monte Carlo algorithm is used to sample spin configurations at different temperatures, while energy, magnetization, specific heat, magnetic susceptibility and Binder cumulant are calculated to describe the transition from an ordered state to a disordered state.The simulation results show that the system exhibits clear long-range order at low temperatures, where the order parameter remains high.As temperature increases, thermal fluctuations become stronger, magnetization decreases rapidly, and the system gradually evolves into a disordered state.The specific heat curve shows a pronounced peak at approximately (T = 2.269), while the susceptibility peak shifts slightly toward the high-temperature side due to finite-size effects and the discrete temperature grid.Overall, the simulated critical region is consistent with the theoretical critical temperature of the two-dimensional square-lattice Ising model.Spin-configuration analysis further reveals enhanced fluctuations and domain reconstruction near the critical region.In addition, a thermalization criterion and an extended sampling test for L = 48 near the critical region are added to examine the influence of finite sampling and equilibration.These results indicate that Monte Carlo simulation of the two-dimensional Ising model can effectively reproduce continuous phase transition, critical fluctuation and finite-size effects, providing a basic computational case for understanding critical phenomena in complex systems and data-driven physical analysis.

The critical region of the random-bond Ising model

A. L. Talapov, Щур Лев Николаевич

We describe results of the cluster algorithm special purpose processor simulations of the 2D Ising model with impurity bonds. We use large lattices with up to 10 6 spins to define critical temperature regions where both finite-size corrections and corrections to scaling are small. High-accuracy data unambiguously show an increase in the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility effective exponents beta and gamma , caused by impurities. The Mand chi -singularities become sharper, while the specific heat singularity is smoothed.

Monte Carlo-Based Modeling of 2-D Ising Systems Using Metropolis Algorithm, Simulation Techniques, Thermodynamic Behavior and Magnetization Patterns

Adama Gaye, Omolola Dorcas Atanda

This study presents a comprehensive Monte Carlo simulation of the two-dimensional (2-D) Ising model using the Metropolis algorithm to investigate critical phenomena and thermodynamic behavior in spin-lattice systems. The model, implemented in MATLAB with periodic boundary conditions, explores equilibrium properties such as magnetization, internal energy, specific heat, and susceptibility across a range of temperatures. By employing various initial spin configurations—ordered and random—the simulations demonstrate the system's ergodicity and convergence to thermal equilibrium. Key results include a sharp decline in magnetization and a pronounced peak in specific heat near the critical temperature, consistent with second-order phase transition behavior. The simulation captures microscopic domain evolution, highlighting the transition from ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phases as thermal fluctuations increase. The study further evaluates algorithmic efficiency, discusses the impact of lattice size on statistical accuracy, and proposes improvements using advanced cluster algorithms and parallel computing frameworks. The findings validate theoretical predictions from Onsager's solution and underscore the versatility of Monte Carlo techniques in modeling collective behavior in magnetic systems. The simulation framework offers a robust foundation for analyzing critical dynamics and extends its relevance to broader applications in material science, computational physics, and complex systems modeling.
