The Rosenzweig-Porter model is a one-parameter family of random matrices with three different phases: ergodic, extended non-ergodic and localized. We characterize numerically each of these phases and the transitions between them. We focus…

We prove a general result that if a Metropolis--Hastings algorithm has a proposal that is not geometrically ergodic and the acceptance rate approaches unity at a suitable rate as the state variable becomes large, then the Metropolised chain…
