title: Flat histogram simulation of lattice polymer systems.
abstract: We demonstrate the use of an algorithm called the Flat Histogram sampling algorithm for the simulation of two-dimensional lattice polymer systems. Thermodynamic properties, such as the average energy or entropy and other physical quantities such as the end-to-end distance or radius of gyration can be easily calculated using this method. The ground-state energy can also be determined. We also explore the accuracy and limitations of this method.
