Abstract

We describe a Special Purpose Processor, realizing the Wolff algorithm in hardware, which is fast enough to study the critical behaviour of 2D Ising-like systems containing more than one million spins. The processor has been checked to produce correct results for a pure Ising model and for Ising model with random bonds. Its data also agree with the Nishimori exact results for spin glass. Only minor changes of the SPP design are necessary to increase the dimensionality and to take into account more complex systems such as Potts models.

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.

THE CLUSTER PROCESSOR: NEW RESULTS

Henk W. J. Blöte, Щур Лев Николаевич, ANDREI L. TALAPOV

We present a progress report on the Cluster Processor, a special-purpose computer system for the Wolff simulation of the three-dimensional Ising model, including an analysis of simulation results obtained thus far. These results allow, within narrow error margins, a determination of the parameters describing the phase transition of the simple-cubic Ising model and its universality class. For an improved determination of the correction-to-scaling exponent, we include Monte Carlo data for systems with nearest-neighbor and third-neighbor interactions in the analysis.

The magnetization of the 3D Ising model

A. L. Talapov, Henk W. J. Blöte

We present highly accurate Monte Carlo results for simple cubic Ising lattices containing up to spins. These results were obtained by means of the Cluster Processor, a newly built special-purpose computer for the Wolff cluster simulation of the 3D Ising model. We find that the spontaneous magnetization M(t) is accurately described by , where , in a wide temperature range 0.0005 < t < 0.26. Any corrections to scaling with higher powers of t could not be resolved from our data, which implies that they are very small. The magnetization exponent is determined as . An analysis of the magnetization distribution near criticality yields a new determination of the critical point: , with a standard deviation of .
