Sumario:This book deals with all aspects of Monte Carlo simulation of complex physical systems encountered in condensed-matter physics and statistical mechanics as well as in related fields, for example polymer science and lattice gauge theory. After briefly recalling essential background in statistical mechanics and probability theory, the authors give a succinct overview of simple sampling methods. The next several chapters develop the importance sampling method. The concepts behind the various simulation algorithms are explained. The fact that simulations deal with small systems is emphasized.
