Abstract
We consider dynamical percolation on the complete graph , where each edge refreshes its state at rate , and is then declared open with probability where . We study a random walk on this dynamical environment which jumps at rate along every open edge. We show that the mixing time of the full system exhibits cutoff at . We do this by showing that the random walk component mixes faster than the environment process; along the way, we control the time it takes for the walk to become isolated.
