We investigate local update algorithms for the fully frustrated XY model on a square lattice. In addition to the standard updating procedures like the Metropolis or heat bath algorithm we include overrelaxation sweeps, implemented through…
Monte Carlo simulations have boosted the numerical study of several different physical systems and in particular, the canonical ensemble has been especially useful because of the existence of easy and efficient relaxation algorithms…
I present a hybrid-like two-step algorithm, which combines a microcanonical update of a spin system using demons, with a multicanonical demon refresh. The algorithm is free from the supercritical slowing down that burdens the canonical…
The kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) method is used in many scientific fields in applications involving rare-event transitions. Due to its discrete stochastic nature, efforts to parallelize kMC approaches often produce unbalanced time evolutions…
In this talk I present a multicanonical hybrid-like two-step algorithm, which consists of a microcanonical spin system update with demons, and a multicanonical demon refresh. The demons act as a buffer between the multicanonical heat bath…
We present a comparison of the performance of two non-local update algorithms for path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations, the multigrid Monte Carlo method and the staging algorithm. Looking at autocorrelation times for the internal…
Monte Carlo simulation is an unbiased numerical tool for studying classical and quantum many-body systems. One of its bottlenecks is the lack of general and efficient update algorithm for large size systems close to phase transition or with…
We propose a novel technique for speeding up the self-learning Monte Carlo method applied to the single-site impurity model. For the case where the effective Hamiltonian is expressed by polynomial functions of differences of imaginary-time…
This paper proposes a new multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) method for the ergodic SDEs which do not satisfy the contractivity condition. By introducing the change of measure technique, we simulate the path with contractivity and add the…
Recent studies have illustrated that stochastic gradient Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques have a strong potential in non-convex optimization, where local and global convergence guarantees can be shown under certain conditions. By…
The physics of crystalline membranes, i.e. fixed-connectivity surfaces embedded in three dimensions and with an extrinsic curvature term, is very rich and of great theoretical interest. To understand their behavior, numerical simulations…
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of many systems, in particular those with conflicting constraints, can be considerably speeded up by using multicanonical or related methods. Some of these approaches sample with a-priori unknown weight factors.…
We propose a Monte Carlo method which performs a random walk in energy space using cluster-like collective updates. By imposing that bond probabilities depend continuously on the microcanonical temperature, we obtain dynamic exponents close…
Determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) is a widely used unbiased numerical method for simulating strongly correlated electron systems. However, the update process in DQMC is often a bottleneck for its efficiency. To address this issue, we…
We introduce a new Monte Carlo method for pure gauge theories. It is not intended for use with dynamical fermions. It belongs to the class of Local Hybrid Monte Carlo (LHMC) algorithms, which make use of the locality of the action by…
In this work we consider a class of uncertainty quantification problems where the system performance or reliability is characterized by a scalar parameter $y$. The performance parameter $y$ is random due to the presence of various sources…
Relying on the recently proposed multicanonical algorithm, we present a numerical simulation of the first order phase transition in the 2d 10-state Potts model on lattices up to sizes $100\times100$. It is demonstrated that the new…
We propose a new recursive procedure to estimate the microcanonical density of states in multicanonical Monte Carlo simulations which relies only on measurements of moments of the energy distribution, avoiding entirely the need for energy…
We develop a novel Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method that exploits a hierarchy of models of increasing complexity to efficiently generate samples from an unnormalized target distribution. Broadly, the method rewrites the Multilevel…
For Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, one of the greatest discrepancies between theory and system is the scan order - while most theoretical development on the mixing time analysis deals with random updates, real-world systems are…
