„Importance Sampling“ Monte Carlo method Expectation value of a canonic ensemble normalized Boltzmann factor Simple Sampling Monte Carlo method: choose randomly N states x1, x2, ...., xN from phase space Importance Sampling Monte Carlo method: choose states x1, x2, ...., xN with a probability P(xi) from phase space with P(xi)~exp(-H(xi)/kBT) idea of Metropolis: consecutive states are generated by a transition probability (Markov process). The choice of the transition probability has to be made in such a way that the probability function P(xi) of the states convergence against the equilibrium distribution
„Metropolis algorithm“ 1. Choose randomly a state from phase space . 2. An accessible state from phase space is chosen. 4. The energy difference DH between the new and the old state is computed. 4. If DH<0 the new state will be accepted. 5. If DH>0 the new state is accepted with the probability exp(- DH/kT). That means, when a random number from [0;1] < exp(- DH/kT) than the new state is accepted. 6. Go back to 2.
