Resumo

We test a multigrid Monte Carlo method for systems with compact variables in the two dimensional XY model on lattices up to 256 × 256. In the vortex phase, using a 10-hit Metropolis updating scheme, we find the integrated autocorrelation time τ for the magnetic susceptibility scaling with the correlation length ζ like τ ∝ ζ1.35(20) in the range ζ ≈ 12–40. In the spin-wave phase critical slowing down appears to be eliminated.
