“…In particular, to minimize the hysteresis associated with first-order transitions, we used mixed initial conditions in which different parts of the system are assigned different ordered or disordered states. 33 Where the acceptance rate in MC updates becomes extremely slow, we used the exchange MC method, 34 to avoid local spin freezing at low temperatures. Results are divided into five bins to estimate statistical errors by variance of average values in the bins.…”

“…Data collapse of the correlation function C(x,t) of the 2D dynamic XY model with a disordered start. Solid lines are for tϭ20, 40,80,160,320,640,1280,2560,5120, and 10 240 ͑from left͒. Circles, squares, diamonds, triangles up, triangles left, triangles down, triangles right, pluses, and crosses fitted to the curve of tϭ160 are curves of tϭ20, 40,80,320,640,1280,2560,5120 and 10 240, but rescaled according to Eq.…”
