In this paper, we apply some recent eigenvalue bounds based on heat kernel estimates to provide polynomial bounds on Markov chain approaches to a number of sampling problems. In particular, for the space S of rn by n contingency tables (which are arrays of non-negative integers having fixed row and

This short note considers the usual coupling approach to bounding convergence of Markov chains. It addresses the question of whether it suffices to have two chains become equal at a single time or whether it is necessary to have them then remain equal for all future times. Ε½ . Let P x, ΠΈ be the tran
