Meron-cluster simulation of the quantum antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model in a magnetic field in one- and two-dimensions

Motivated by the numerical simulation of systems which display quantum phase transitions, we present a novel application of the meron-cluster algorithm to simulate the quantum antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model coupled to an external uniform magnetic field both in one and in two dimensions. In the i...
