The Broad Histogram is a method allowing the direct calculation of the energy degeneracy $g(E)$. This quantity is independent of thermodynamic concepts such as thermal equilibrium. It only depends on the distribution of allowed (micro)…
The Broad Histogram Method (BHM) allows one to determine the energy degeneracy g(E), i.e. the energy spectrum of a given system, from the knowledge of the microcanonical averages <Nup(E)> and <Ndn(E)> of two macroscopic quantities Nup and…
Ferrenberg and Swendsen histogram method is based on Boltzmann probability distribution which presents exponentially decaying tails. Thus, it gives accurate measures only within a narrow window around the simulated temperature. The larger…
We propose a new Monte Carlo technique in which the degeneracy of energy states is obtained with a Markovian process analogous to that of Metropolis used currently in canonical simulations. The obtained histograms are much broader than…
We discuss the conceptual differences between the Broad Histogram (BHM) and reweighting methods in general, and particularly the so-called Multicanonical (MUCA) approaches. The main difference is that BHM is based on microcanonical,…

We show explicitly that the broad histogram single-spin-flip random walk dynamics does not give correct microcanonical average even in one dimension. The dynamics violates detailed balance condition by an amount which decreases with system…

We extend the ideas of using AdS/CFT to calculate energy loss of extended defects in strongly coupled systems to general holographic metrics. We find the equations of motion governing uniformly moving defects of various dimension and…

We discuss Monte Carlo dynamics based on <N(sigma, Delta E)>_E, the (microcanonical) average number of potential moves which increase the energy by Delta E in a single spin flip. The microcanonical average can be sampled using Monte Carlo…
Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. The energy $E$ of the graph $G$ is defined as the sum of the moduli of the adjacency eigenvalues $\lambda_{1} \geq \lambda_{2} \geq \ldots \geq \lambda_{n}$ of $G$: $$…
The edge-degeneracy model is an exponential random graph model that uses the graph degeneracy, a measure of the graph's connection density, and number of edges in a graph as its sufficient statistics. We show this model is relatively…
We present a new Monte Carlo algorithm that produces results of high accuracy with reduced simulational effort. Independent random walks are performed (concurrently or serially) in different, restricted ranges of energy, and the resultant…
