| dc.description | I describe the classic circle-packing problem on a sphere, and the analytic and numerical approaches that have been used to study it. I then present a very simple Markov-chain Monte Carlo algorithm, which succeeds in finding the best solutions known today. The behavior of the algorithm is put into the context of the statistical physics of glasses. | |
