FIXED_N_2

static final int FIXED_N_2

Fixed values: beta as given, chi=beta*(n-2). This is near the chi/beta threshold above which the convergence to *a* permutation is almost ensured. This seems to give a better permutation at convergence. (VM, June 2004)

RESET_BALANCE

static final int RESET_BALANCE

Fixed beta. Recompute chi at every step, maintaining sum_{a,x}(N(a,x))=0. This heuristic was used for October 2003 experiments.
