Abstract

A Monte Carlo algorithm is presented that updates large clusters of spins simultaneously in systems at and near criticality. We demonstrate its efficiency in the two-dimensional O (n) models for n=1 (Ising) and n=2 (x-y) at their critical temperatures, and for n=3 (Heisenberg) with correlation lengths around 10 and 20. On lattices up to 128^2 no sign of critical slowing down is visible with autocorrelation times of 1-2 steps per spin for estimators of long-range quantities.
