Monte-Carlo algorithm for a two-dimensional Hubbard model of high-Tc superconductivity

Abstract

A Monte-Carlo procedure is given for the two-dimensional (2-D) Hubbard model using the Suzuki-Trotter transformation. The resulting three-dimensional (3-D) classical model does not have the usual problems with negative transition probabilities in the large-U limit (U-repulsive interactions). Numerical simulations based on the algorithm described are expected to be of importance for the theory of high-T c superconductivity.
