Event-Chain Monte-Carlo Simulations of Dense Soft Matter Systems

We discuss the rejection-free event-chain Monte-Carlo algorithm and several applications to dense soft matter systems. Event-chain Monte-Carlo is an alternative to standard local Markov-chain Monte-Carlo schemes, which are based on detailed balance, for example the well-known Metropolis-Hastings alg...
