Let $T$ be a tree on $n$ vertices and with maximum degree $\Delta$. We show that for $k\geq \Delta+1$ the Glauber dynamics for $k$-edge-colourings of $T$ mixes in polynomial time in $n$. The bound on the number of colours is best possible…

We give the first comprehensive analysis of the effect of boundary conditions on the mixing time of the Glauber dynamics in the so-called Bethe approximation. Specifically, we show that spectral gap and the log-Sobolev constant of the…

We consider Metropolis Glauber dynamics for sampling proper $q$-colourings of the $n$-vertex complete $b$-ary tree when $3\leq q\leq b/2\ln(b)$. We give both upper and lower bounds on the mixing time. For fixed $q$ and $b$, our upper bound…

We prove that the mixing time of the Glauber dynamics for random k-colorings of the complete tree with branching factor b undergoes a phase transition at $k=b(1+o_b(1))/\ln{b}$. Our main result shows nearly sharp bounds on the mixing time…

We study continuous time Glauber dynamics for random configurations with local constraints (e.g. proper coloring, Ising and Potts models) on finite graphs with $n$ vertices and of bounded degree. We show that the relaxation time (defined as…

We develop a new framework to prove the mixing or relaxation time for the Glauber dynamics on spin systems with unbounded degree. It works for general spin systems including both $2$-spin and multi-spin systems. As applications for this…

The Glauber dynamics on the colourings of a graph is a random process which consists in recolouring at each step a random vertex of a graph with a new colour chosen uniformly at random among the colours not already present in its…

For general spin systems, we prove that a contractive coupling for any local Markov chain implies optimal bounds on the mixing time and the modified log-Sobolev constant for a large class of Markov chains including the Glauber dynamics,…

We analyze the mixing time of a natural local Markov chain (the Glauber dynamics) on configurations of the solid-on-solid model of statistical physics. This model has been proposed, among other things, as an idealization of the behavior of…

We prove an optimal mixing time bound on the single-site update Markov chain known as the Glauber dynamics or Gibbs sampling in a variety of settings. Our work presents an improved version of the spectral independence approach of Anari et…

The random-cluster model has been widely studied as a unifying framework for random graphs, spin systems and electrical networks, but its dynamics have so far largely resisted analysis. In this paper we analyze the Glauber dynamics of the…

We address the convergence rate of Markov chains for randomly generating an edge coloring of a given tree. Our focus is on the Glauber dynamics which updates the color at a randomly chosen edge in each step. For a tree $T$ with $n$ vertices…

We study the single-site Glauber dynamics for the fugacity $\lambda$, Hard-core model on the random graph $G(n, d/n)$. We show that for the typical instances of the random graph $G(n,d/n)$ and for fugacity $\lambda <…

Gibbs sampling also known as Glauber dynamics is a popular technique for sampling high dimensional distributions defined on graphs. Of special interest is the behavior of Gibbs sampling on the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph G(n,d/n). While…

We study the mixing time of Glauber dynamics on monotone systems. For monotone systems satisfying the entropic independence condition, we prove a new mixing time comparison result for Glauber dynamics. For concrete applications, we obtain…

An important paradigm in the understanding of mixing times of Glauber dynamics for spin systems is the correspondence between spatial mixing properties of the models and bounds on the mixing time of the dynamics. This includes, in…

Consider Glauber dynamics for the Ising model on a graph of $n$ vertices. Hayes and Sinclair showed that the mixing time for this dynamics is at least $n\log n/f(\Delta)$, where $\Delta$ is the maximum degree and $f(\Delta) = \Theta(\Delta…

We give a systematic development of the application of matrix norms to rapid mixing in spin systems. We show that rapid mixing of both random update Glauber dynamics and systematic scan Glauber dynamics occurs if any matrix norm of the…

We study the mixing time of systematic scan Glauber dynamics Ising model on the complete graph. On the complete graph $K_n$, at each time, $k \leq n$ vertices are chosen uniformly random and are updated one by one according to the uniformly…

We consider the performance of Glauber dynamics for the random cluster model with real parameter $q>1$ and temperature $\beta>0$. Recent work by Helmuth, Jenssen and Perkins detailed the ordered/disordered transition of the model on random…
