Under +these conditions, most choices of reflection plane will cause a change in +energy so great that the whole system is always flipped, resulting in many +highly correlated and inefficiently generated samples. To ameliorate this, one +can draw reflections from a distribution that depends on how the first spin +flip is transformed. We implement this in the following way. Say that the seed +of the cluster is $s$. Generate a vector $t$ taken uniformly from the space of +unit vectors orthogonal to $s$. Let the plane of reflection that whose normal +is $n=s+\zeta t$, where $\zeta$ is drawn from a normal distribution of mean +zero and variance $\sigma$. It follows that the tangent of the angle between +$s$ and the plane of reflection is also distributed normally with zero mean +and variance $\sigma$. Since the distribution of reflection planes only +depends on the angle between $s$ and the plane and that angle is invariant +under the reflection, this choice preserves detailed balance. The choice of +$\sigma$ can be inspired by mean field theory. At high field or low +temperature, spins are likely to both align with the field and each other and +the model is asymptotically equal to a simple Gaussian one, with in the limit +of large $L$ the expected square angle between neighbors being +\[ + \avg{\theta^2}\simeq\frac{(n-1)T}{D+H/2} +\] \subsection{The Potts model} In the $q$-state Potts model spins are described by elements of $\{1,\ldots,q\}$.
