20. A lattice with N sites is taken and an array of points on the lattice is generated. Each new point is introduced via weighted random number generation. First, a pair of existing points is selected between which to introduce the new one. The selection is weighted by the γ th power of the separation of the points. Then the actual position in the gap for insertion, x, is selected with weighting given by the function p n λ (x / y). We use L = 10 4 and gather data for 100 particles over 5 × 10 4 realizations.
