Mixing Time of the Rudvalis Shuffle
We extend a technique for lower-bounding the mixing time of card-shuffling Markov chains, and use it to bound the mixing time of the Rudvalis Markov chain, as well as two variants considered by Diaconis and Saloff-Coste. We show that in each case Θ(n log n) shuffles are required for the permutation to randomize, which matches (up to constants) previously known upper bounds. In contrast, for the...
متن کاملImproved Mixing Time Bounds for the Thorp Shuffle
E. Thorp introduced the following card shuffling model. Suppose the number of cards n is even. Cut the deck into two equal piles. Drop the first card from the left pile or from the right pile according to the outcome of a fair coin flip. Then drop from the other pile. Continue this way until both piles are empty. We show that if n is a power of 2 then the mixing time of the Thorp shuffle is O(l...
متن کامل2 Mixing of Riffle Shuffle via Strong Stationary Times
1.2 Relating the inverse and standard shuffles We now need to relate ∆(t) to ∆(t). We will do this by taking a more general view of shuffles. We will think of a shuffle as a random walk on the symmetric group Sn. The walk is defined by a set of generators G = {g1, . . . , gk} and a probability distribution P over G. (At each step of the walk, we pick a random gi according to P and apply gi to t...

هدف اصلی این تحقیق بررسی تاثیر برنامه ریزی زمانی، هم چنین افزایش میزان پیچیدگی تکالیف در نظر گرفته شده بصورت همزمان، بر دقت و صحت و پیچیدگی عملکرد نوشتاری زبان آموزان می باشد. بدین منظور، 50 نفر از دانش آموزان دختر در رده ی سنی 16 الی 18 سال به عنوان شرکت کنندگان در این زمینه ی تحقیق در نظر گرفته شدند و به دو گروه آزمایشی و کنترل بصورت اتفاقی تقسیم شدند. اعضای گروه آزمایشی هر دو تکلیف ساده و پی...
Randomization Time for the Overhand Shuffle
1. THE OVERHAND SHUFFLE (~o The two most common methods of shuffling a deck of playing cards are the riffle shuffle and the overhand shuffle. The riffle shuffle is performed by splitting the deck into two halves and interlacing them. Aldous and Diaconis have shown in Ref. I that approximately 2 log N riffle shuffles suffices to randomize a deck (the meaning of this will be made more precise bel...
