Abstract: We propose a new cluster algorithm for the Baxter–Wu model that significantly reduces critical slowing down. We examine the behavior of the created clusters as we vary the temperature and then specify dynamic exponents. Comparison is made with the Metropolis algorithm and with the other existing cluster algorithm.
