Hello, bonjour, dobar dan, goedendag,
Welcome to the eighth homework session of
Statistical Mechanics: Algorithms and Computations
from the Phi-sics department of Ecole Normale Superieure.
This week is all about Ising model.
In the lecture and the tutorial, you were presented
with basic numerical approaches, like the Metropolis
or the heat-bath algorithm,
but also with the cluster method,
that goes through the space configuration with breath-taking speed
this is something you must see by yourself
In the tutorial, we also showed a curious coupling phenomenon
where all configurations come together
Again, how these configurations come together is something
that you have to see by yourself
and then you will make it into a perfect sampling algorithm
So in this week's homework you will program cluster
and coupling algorithm, or rather download run and modify
the ones that we provide.
So, have fun with Homework session 8
the penultimate homework session of Statistical Mehcanics: Algorithms and Computations
and see you again next week.
