Grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of elastic membranes with fluidity

Description

We study a fluid membrane model defined on triangulated surfaces of spherical topology, by using the grand canonical Monte Carlo with dynamical triangulations. It is shown that the phase structure of the model depends crucially on the choice of the integration measure dX in the partition function
