The Sweeny algorithm shows varied critical dynamics for the Q-state random-cluster model. A modified Sweeny-Kawasaki method improves efficiency by achieving constant autocorrelation time.

Area of Science:

  • Statistical mechanics
  • Computational physics
  • Dynamical systems

Background:

  • The Q-state random-cluster model is crucial for understanding phase transitions.
  • The Sweeny algorithm is a common method for simulating this model.
  • Critical slowing-down can hinder simulation efficiency.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the critical dynamical scaling behaviors of the Sweeny algorithm.
  • To identify and address the nonergodicity issues at Q→0.
  • To develop an improved simulation method with enhanced efficiency.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of the Sweeny algorithm's performance for the 2D Q-state random-cluster model.
  • Investigation of autocorrelation times for local and nonlocal quantities.

  • Development and testing of a combined Sweeny-Kawasaki algorithm.
  • Classification of bonds (bridge, backbone, internal-perimeter, external-perimeter) for method improvement.

    • Main Results:

    • The Sweeny algorithm exhibits critical speeding-up for nonlocal quantities as Q decreases.
    • For local quantities, autocorrelation time diverges as Q^{-1/2} as Q→0, causing nonergodicity.
    • The divergence is linked to the critical bond weight v=sqrt[Q].
    • Combining Sweeny and Kawasaki algorithms eliminates Q-dependent critical slowing-down.
    • An improved Sweeny-Kawasaki method achieves O(1) autocorrelation time for all quantities.

    Conclusions:

    • The Sweeny algorithm's efficiency is Q-dependent and can lead to nonergodicity.
    • The Sweeny-Kawasaki combination effectively overcomes these limitations.
    • A refined Sweeny-Kawasaki method provides a highly efficient simulation approach for the random-cluster model.
