摘要
We present an improved Metropolis algorithm for arbitrary hard core systems in any dimensions. In the new updating scheme the conventional Metropolis step of a single particle is replaced by a collective step of a chain of particles. For the two-dimensional hard sphere model we show that this algorithm essentially reduces autocorrelation times in the vicinity of the transition point. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
