Abstract
A new Monte Carlo method is introduced which generates configurations according to any desired probability distribution. Unlike previous techniques, which require the relative probability of any two configurations to be computed exactly, this method allows the prescence of large but unbiased noise in this computation. The method has important applications in including the effects of dynamical fermions in Monte Carlo calculations, amongst other problems.Keywords
