The transition between the two phases of 4D Euclidean Dynamical Triangulation [1] was long believed to be of second order until in 1996 first order behavior was found for sufficiently large systems [3,4]. However, one may wonder if this…

Extensive Monte Carlo simulation results of the standard two-dimensional driven diffusive systems are obtained using a multispin coding technique. The nonequilibrium phase transition is analyzed with anisotropic finite-size scaling, both at…

We show that the common local Monte Carlo rules used to simulate the motion of driven flux lines in disordered media cannot capture the interplay between elasticity and disorder which lies at the heart of these systems. We therefore discuss…
