The Wang-Landau method was proposed by F. Wang and D. P. Landau (Ref. 1) to compute the density of states, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Omega (E) } , of Potts models;
