Abstract

A novel method for numerical numerical spin glass investigations is described: Simulations of two replica at fixed temperature, weighted such that a broad distribution of the Parisi overlap parameter q is achieved. Canonical expectation values for the entire q-range (multi-overlap) follow by re-weighting and allow a calculation of spin glass tunneling barriers.
