Faster Mixing for Triangulations via Transport Flows
Vedat Levi Alev, Daniel Frishberg, Michail Sarantis +1
We prove an bound for the relaxation time and the log-Sobolev time (inverse log-Sobolev constant) of the classical triangulation flip chain on a convex -…

Sequential Sweeps and High Dimensional Expansion
Vedat Levi Alev, Ori Parzanchevski
It is well known that the spectral gap of the down-up walk over an -partite simplicial complex (also known as Glauber dynamics) cannot be better than due to natural obs…

Hypergraph Samplers: Typical and Worst Case Behavior
Vedat Levi Alev, Uriya A. First
We study the utility and limitations of using -uniform hypergraphs () in the context of error reduction for randomized algorithms for deci…
