With the aim of studying the relevance and properties of critical slowing down in Monte Carlo simulations of lattice quantum field theories we carried out a high precision numerical study of the discretised two-dimensional CP^{N-1} model at N=10 using an over-heat bath algorithm. We identify critical slowing down in terms of slowly-evolving topological modes and present evidence that other observables couple to these slow modes. This coupling is found to reduce however as we increase the physical volume in which we simulate.

We investigate the critical slowing down of the topological modes using local updating algorithms in lattice 2-d CP^(N-1) models. We show that the topological modes experience a critical slowing down that is much more severe than the one of the quasi -Gaussian modes relevant to the magnetic susceptibility, which is characterized by $tau_{rm mag} sim xi^z$ with $zapprox 2$. We argue that this may be a general feature of Monte Carlo simulations of lattice theories with non-trivial topological properties, such as QCD, as also suggested by recent Monte Carlo simulations of 4-d SU(N) lattice gauge theories.

In order to check the validity and the range of applicability of the 1/N expansion, we performed numerical simulations of the two-dimensional lattice CP(N-1) models at large N, in particular we considered the CP(20) and the CP(40) models. Quantitativ e agreement with the large-N predictions is found for the correlation length defined by the second moment of the correlation function, the topological susceptibility and the string tension. On the other hand, quantities involving the mass gap are still far from the large-$N$ results showing a very slow approach to the asymptotic regime. To overcome the problems coming from the severe form of critical slowing down observed at large N in the measurement of the topological susceptibility by using standard local algorithms, we performed our simulations implementing the Simulated Tempering method.

CP(N-1) model with topological term is numerically studied. The topological charge distribution P(Q) is calculated and then transformed to the partition function Z($theta$) as a function of $theta$ parameter. In the strong coupling region, P(Q) shows a gaussian behavior, which indicates a first order phase transition at $theta =pi$. In the weak coupling region, P(Q) deviates from gaussian. A bending behavior of resulting F($theta$) at $theta eq pi$, which might be a signal of a first order phase transition, could be misled by large errors coming from the fourier transform of P(Q). Results are shown mainly for CP(3) case.
We investigate the response of a photonic gas interacting with a reservoir of pumped dye-molecules to quenches in the pump power. In addition to the expected dramatic critical slowing down of the equilibration time around phase transitions we find ex tremely slow equilibration even far away from phase transitions. This non-critical slowing down can be accounted for quantitatively by fierce competition among cavity modes for access to the molecular environment, and we provide a quantitative explanation for this non-critical slowing down.
A $theta$ term in lattice field theory causes the sign problem in Monte Carlo simulations. This problem can be circumvented by Fourier-transforming the topological charge distribution $P(Q)$. This strategy, however, has a limitation, because errors o f $P(Q)$ prevent one from calculating the partition function ${cal Z}(theta)$ properly for large volumes. This is called flattening. As an alternative approach to the Fourier method, we utilize the maximum entropy method (MEM) to calculate ${cal Z}(theta)$. We apply the MEM to Monte Carlo data of the CP$^3$ model. It is found that in the non-flattening case, the result of the MEM agrees with that of the Fourier transform, while in the flattening case, the MEM gives smooth ${cal Z}(theta)$.
