We present improved bounds for randomly sampling $k$-colorings of graphs with maximum degree $\Delta$; our results hold without any further assumptions on the graph. The Glauber dynamics is a simple single-site update Markov chain. Jerrum…
For an integer $b \ge 1$, a $b$-matching (resp. $b$-edge cover) of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subset $S\subseteq E$ of edges such that every vertex is incident with at most (resp. at least) $b$ edges from $S$. We prove that for any $b \ge 1$…

The Ising model is widely regarded as the most studied model of spin-systems in statistical physics. The focus of this paper is its dynamic (stochastic) version, the Glauber dynamics, introduced in 1963 and by now the most popular means of…
For any fixed graph $G$, the subgraph isomorphism problem asks whether an $n$-vertex input graph has a subgraph isomorphic to $G$. A well-known algorithm of Alon, Yuster and Zwick (1995) efficiently reduces this to the "colored" version of…
The Ising model on networks plays a fundamental role as a testing ground for understanding cooperative phenomena in complex systems. Here we solve the synchronous dynamics of the Ising model on random graphs with an arbitrary degree…
The random-cluster model is a unifying framework for studying random graphs, spin systems in physics and random spanning trees. The model is closely related to, though much more general than the classical Ising and Potts models, but its…

In this note we consider the Glauber dynamics for the mean-field Ising model, when all couplings are equal and the external field is uniform. It is proved that the relaxation time of the dynamics is monotonically decreasing in temperature.
Spectral independence is a recently-developed framework for obtaining sharp bounds on the convergence time of the classical Glauber dynamics. This new framework has yielded optimal $O(n \log n)$ sampling algorithms on bounded-degree graphs…
