Abstract

A new variant of the Wolff cluster algorithm is proposed for simulating systems with competing interactions. This method is used in a high-precision study of the Lifshitz point of the 3D ANNNI model. At the Lifshitz point, several critical exponents are found and the anisotropic scaling of the correlators is verified. The functional form of the two-point correlators is shown to be consistent with the predictions of generalized conformal invariance.
