On the Functional Form of the Transition Probabilities in the Monte Carlo Method as Used in Statistical Mechanics
Keyword(s):
The transition probabilities W in the traditional Monte Carlo simulation process used in statistical mechanics are shown to satisfy a linear functional equation. General classes of solution to this equation are presented. A simple one-particle mean-field Ising model of a ferromagnet is used in an analytical comparison of the various possible forms of W.
