A bounding chain for Swendsen-Wang
The greatst drawback of Monte Carlo Markov chain methods is lack of knowledge of the mixing time of the chain. The use of bounding chains solves this difficulty for some chains by giving theoretical and experimental upper bounds on the mixing time. Moreover, when used with methodologies such as coupling from the past, bounding chains allow the user to take samples drawn exactly from the station...
متن کاملComparison of Swendsen-Wang and heat-bath dynamics
We prove that the spectral gap of the Swendsen-Wang process for the Potts model on graphs with bounded degree is bounded from below by some constant times the spectral gap of any single-spin dynamics. This implies rapid mixing for the two-dimensional Potts model at all temperatures above the critical one, as well as rapid mixing at the critical temperature for the Ising model. After this we int...
متن کاملRapid mixing of Swendsen-Wang dynamics in two dimensions
We prove comparison results for the Swendsen-Wang (SW) dynamics, the heat-bath (HB) dynamics for the Potts model and the single-bond (SB) dynamics for the randomcluster model on arbitrary graphs. In particular, we prove that rapid (i.e. polynomial) mixing of HB implies rapid mixing of SW on graphs with bounded maximum degree and that rapid mixing of SW and rapid mixing of SB are equivalent. Add...

متن کاملRapid mixing of Swendsen-Wang and single-bond dynamics in two dimensions
We prove that the spectral gap of the Swendsen-Wang dynamics for the random-cluster model on arbitrary graphs with m edges is bounded above by 16m logm times the spectral gap of the single-bond (or heat-bath) dynamics. This and the corresponding lower bound (from [U12]) imply that rapid mixing of these two dynamics is equivalent. Using the known lower bound on the spectral gap of the Swendsen-W...
