Abstract :
For Majorana–Wilson lattice fermions in two dimensions we derive a dimer representation. This is equivalent to Gattringerʹs loop representation, but is made exact here on the torus. A subsequent dual mapping leads to yet another representation in which a highly efficient Swendsen–Wang type cluster algorithm is constructed. It includes the possibility of fluctuating boundary conditions. It also allows for improved estimators and makes interesting new observables accessible to Monte Carlo. The algorithm is compatible with the Gross–Neveu as well as an additional image gauge interaction. In this article numerical demonstrations are reported for critical free fermions.
