Mixing of the Glauber dynamics for the ferromagnetic Potts model
Mixing of the Glauber dynamics for the ferromagnetic Potts model
We present several results on the mixing time of the Glauber dynamics for sampling from the Gibbs distribution in the ferromagnetic Potts model. At a fixed temperature and interaction strength, we study the interplay between the maximum degree (Δ) of the underlying graph and the number of colours or spins …
