Hybrid methods Combine updating types ⇒ a single scheme, e.g., a study of the 2-dim classical, XY-model used a mixture of Metropolis, over-relaxation and embedding trick Wolff flips, together with finite size scaling, to determine the Kosterlitz-Thouless temperature to higher precision than previously possible (Evertz and Landau, 1996), J/k B T KT = 0.700(5).
