Dynamics of Clusters in Two-dimensional Potts Model

Dynamical behavior of the clusters during relaxation is studied in two-dimensional Potts model using cluster algorithm. Average cluster size and cluster formation velocity are calculated on two different lattice sizes for different number of states during initial stages of the Monte Carlo simulation. Dependence of these quantities on the order of the transition provides an efficient method to study nature of the phase transitions occuring in similar models.

Study of Cluster Fluctuations in Two-dimensional q-State Potts Model

The two-dimensional Potts Model with 2 to 10 states is studied using a cluster algorithm to calculate fluctuations in cluster size as well as commonly used quantities like equilibrium averages and the histograms for energy and the order parameter. Results provide information about the variation of cluster sizes depending on the temperature and the number of states. They also give evidence for first-order transition when energy and the order parameter related measurables are inconclusive on small size lattices.
