Dynamic Simulation of Kosterlitz-Thouless Transition in Two-Dimensional Fully Frustrated XY Model

Relaxation dynamics of the two-dimensional fully frustrated XY model is investigated with Monte Carlo methods. The simulation focuses on the Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition. From the dynamic scaling behaviour of the magnetization above the transition temperature T_KT, the correlating time of the dynamic system is extracted. The transition temperature T_KT and static exponent ν are then determined.
