This thesis deals with the Monte Carlo method and some of its applications to statistical physics. The first part concerns the study of the melting transition in two dimensions. The nature of this transition is an old problem of statistical physics, and especially for the fundamental model of hard disks. A Monte Carlo algorithm, called ''event-chain'', is developed for this model and is used to study the melting transition. The results show that the transition follows a two-step scenario with a hexatic phase between the liquid and the solid. The solid-hexatic transition is continuous of the Kosterlitz-Thouless type, and the hexatic-liquid transition is discontinuous. These results confirm the existence of the hexatic phase, and pose a new t...
