Abstract
Cluster algorithms for classical and quantum spin systems are discussed. In particular, the cluster algorithm is applied to classical O(N) lattice actions containing interactions of more than two spins. The performance of the multi-cluster and single--cluster methods, and of the standard and improved estimators are compared.
