the Freeman method

Just about a year ago today, I began working on implementing an algorithm my undergrad research advisor had devised to speed up the Metropolis algorithm, in the regime where the acceptance probability is very low, which is the case in lattice simulations of quantum gravity. Quantum Gravity Physics has experienced its most rapid advancement when theories are unified: electromagnetism $\leftarrow$ electricity + magnetism + light general relativity $\leftarrow$ special relativity + curved space-time (gravity) quantum field theory $\leftarrow$ quantum mechanics + special relativity + electromagnetism + matter + nuclear forces And hopefully soon…...
