Abstract

Since the work by Miller, Amon, and Reinhardt, which correctly warned against the indiscriminate adjustment of the maximum step size during Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, some researchers have believed that adjusting the maximum step size always leads to systematic errors. In this paper, I demonstrate that when periodic adjustments are done properly, they can improve the overall accuracy of simulations without introducing errors.
