Superposition of Markov sources and long range dependence
This paper introduces a model to study the phenomenon of long range dependence. This model consists of an infinite superposition of independent Markovian ON/OFF

Fast mixing for independent sets, colorings and other models on trees
We study the mixing time of the Glauber dynamics for general spin systems on bounded-degree trees, including the Ising model, the hard-core model (independent sets) and the antife...

Torpid mixing of simulated tempering on the Potts model
Simulated tempering and swapping are two families of sampling algorithms in which a parameter representing temperature varies during the simulation. The hope is that this will ove...

Rapid mixing of Gibbs sampling on graphs that are sparse on average
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 sa...

The Ising Model: Simple Evolutionary Algorithms as Adaptation Schemes
The investigation of evolutionary algorithms as adaptation schemes has a long history starting with Holland (1975). The Ising model from physics leads to a variety of different pr...

A Polynomial Upper Bound for a Mutation-Based Algorithm on the Two-Dimensional Ising Model
Abstract. Fitness functions based on the Ising model are suited excellently for studying the adaption capabilities of randomised search heuristics. The one-dimensional Ising model ...
