Monte Carlo simulation in statistical physics. An introduction.

From MaRDI portal





This third edition differs from the first (1988; Zbl 0687.65004) in two important respects: printing errors have been eliminated, unclear formulations have been replaced by better ones and so on. We have also added an entire new chapter ``Some Important Recent Developments of the Monte Carlo Methodology, which describes technical breakthroughs such as cluster algorithms and histogram reweighting, which became established after the first edition was published and are now commonly used by many Monte Carlo practitioners. The many references (far more than 100) in this chapter will make this book useful for the experienced researcher as well as the new student, who is encouraged to apply these techniques when working through the exercises in Chapter 3.
