We follow up on an old proposal of Creutz, to perform overrelaxation in the full SU(N) group instead, and show that it is more efficient.7 pages, 5 figures, to appear in the proceedings of the "Third International Workshop on Numerical Analysis and Lattice QCD", Edinburgh, June 2003High Energy Physics - LatticeMonte Carlo overrelaxation for SU(N) gauge theoriestext
