Grand-canonical simulation of two-dimensional simplicial gravity
Abstract
The string susceptibility exponents of dynamically triangulated 2-dimensional surfaces with various topologies, such as a sphere, torus and double-torus, were calculated by the grand-canonical Monte Carlo method. These simulations were made for surfaces coupled to $d$-Ising spins ($d$=0,1,2,3,5). In each simulation the area of surface was constrained to within 1000 to 3000 of triangles, while maintaining the detailed-balance condition. The numerical results show excellent agreement with theoretical predictions as long as $d \leq 2$.
