Abstract

Using the Metropolis Monte Carlo scheme the authors have analysed and compared the behaviour of the two-dimensional classical planar and step models. In particular, they analyse the energy, specific heat, correlation function and susceptibility on a range of finite lattices. While both models show similar numerical difficulties, it is argued that in the case of the step model a phase transition is unlikely.
