摘要
In this work we apply Wang-Landau simulations to a simple model which has exact solutions both in the microcanonical and canonical formalisms. The simulations were carried out by using an updated version of the Wang-Landau sampling. We consider a homopolymer chain consisting of N monomers units which may assume any configuration on the two-dimensional lattice. By imposing constraints to the moves of the polymers we obtain three different models. Our results show that updating the density of states only after every N monomer moves leads to a better precision. We obtain the specific heat and the end-to-end distance per monomer and test the precision of our simulations by comparing the location of the maximum of the specific heat with the exact results and conventional Wang-Landau simulations for the three types of walk.
