Abstract
A new parallel cluster-finding algorithm is formulated by using multigrid relaxation methods very similar to those used for differential equation solvers. For percolation clusters, this approach drastically reduces critical slowing down relative to local or scan relaxation methods. Numerical studies of scaling properties with system size are presented in the case of the 2D percolation clusters of the Swendsen-Wang Ising dynamics running on the Connection Machine.
