We prove a general theorem on cutoffs for symmetric exclusion and interchange processes on finite graphs $G_N=(V_N,E_N)$, under the assumption that either the graphs converge geometrically and spectrally to a compact metric measure space,…
We study the time that the simple exclusion process on the complete graph needs to reach equilibrium in terms of total variation distance. For the graph with n vertices and 1<<k<n/2 particles we show that the mixing time is of order…
Consider symmetric simple exclusion processes, with or without Glauber dynamics on the boundary set, on a sequence of connected unweighted graphs $G_N=(V_N,E_N)$ which converge geometrically and spectrally to a compact connected metric…
We consider the reversible exclusion process with reservoirs on arbitrary networks. We characterize the spectral gap, mixing time, and mixing window of the process, in terms of certain simple statistics of the underlying network. Among…
We study mixing times of the symmetric and asymmetric simple exclusion process on the segment where particles are allowed to enter and exit at the endpoints. We consider different regimes depending on the entering and exiting rates as well…
We prove a cutoff for the random walk on random $n$-lifts of finite weighted graphs, even when the random walk on the base graph $\mathcal{G}$ of the lift is not reversible. The mixing time is w.h.p. $t_{mix}=h^{-1}\log n$, where $h$ is a…
We consider the problem of sampling from data defined on the nodes of a weighted graph, where the edge weights capture the data correlation structure. As shown recently, using spectral graph theory one can define a cut-off frequency for the…
We find the total variation mixing time of the interchange process on the dumbbell graph (two complete graphs, $K_n$ and $K_m$, connected by a single edge), and show that this sequence of chains exhibits the cutoff phenomenon precisely when…
We present an exclusion process based approach for sampling densest $k$-sub-graphs from regular graphs $L$ with connected complement. By interpreting an exclusion process as a Markov chain on a corresponding Token Graph $\mathfrak{L}_k$, we…
We prove a version of the moving particle lemma for the exclusion process on any finite weighted graph, based on the octopus inequality of Caputo, Liggett, and Richthammer. In light of their proof of Aldous' spectral gap conjecture, we…
Exclusion processes became paradigmatic models of nonequilibrium interacting particle systems of wide range applicability both across the natural and the applied, social and technological sciences. Usually they are defined as a…
We give a short and completely elementary method to find the full spectrum of the exclusion process and a nicely limited superset of the spectrum of the interchange process (a.k.a.\ random transpositions) on the complete graph. In the case…
One of the main obstacles regarding Barky Emery curvature on graphs is that the results require a global uniform lower curvature bounds where no exception sets are allowed. We overcome this obstacle by introducing the perpetual cutoff…
A key question in the analysis of discrete models for material defects, such as vortices in spin systems and superconductors or isolated dislocations in metals, is whether information on boundary energy for a domain can be sufficient for…
We resolve the long-standing problem of elucidating the cutoff phenomenon for a vast and important class of Markov processes, namely Markov diffusions with non-negative Bakry-\'Emery curvature. More precisely, we prove that any sequence of…
We establish an abstract local ergodic theorem, under suitable space-time scaling, for the (boundary-driven) symmetric exclusion process on an increasing sequence of balls covering an infinite weighted graph. The proofs are based on 1-block…
We prove an upper bound for the $\varepsilon$-mixing time of the symmetric exclusion process on any graph G, with any feasible number of particles. Our estimate is proportional to $\mathsf{T}_{\mathsf{RW}(G)}\ln(|V|/\varepsilon)$, where |V|…
We establish universality of cutoff for simple random walk on a class of random graphs defined as follows. Given a finite graph $G=(V,E)$ with $|V|$ even we define a random graph $ G^*=(V,E \cup E')$ obtained by picking $E'$ to be the…
Oliveira conjectured that the order of the mixing time of the exclusion process with $k$-particles on an arbitrary $n$-vertex graph is at most that of the mixing-time of $k$ independent particles. We verify this up to a constant factor for…
In this paper, we are interested in the mixing behaviour of simple random walks on inhomogeneous directed graphs. We focus our study on the Chung-Lu digraph, which is an inhomogeneous network that generalizes the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi digraph.…
