Global Demons in Field Theory : Critical Slowing Down in the Xy Model
Dimitri Kusnezov, John Sloan
Abstract
We investigate the use of global demons, a `canonical dynamics', as an approach to simulating lattice regularized field theories. This deterministically chaotic dynamics is non-local and non-Hamiltonian, and preserves the canonical measure rather than δ(H-E). We apply this inexact dynamics to the 2D XY model, comparing to various implementations of hybrid Monte Carlo, focusing on critical exponents and critical slowing down. In addition, we discuss a scheme for making energy non-conserving dynamical algorithms exact without the use of a Metropolis hit.
