A subquadratic upper bound for the mixing time of the Thorp shuffle
Yunjiang Jiang
Let . We prove that the worst-start total-variation mixing time of the full labelled Thorp shuffle satisfies, for every fixed , \[ t_{\mathrm{mix}}(\varepsi…
Cutoff for the Overhand Shuffle
Yunjiang Jiang
We study the overhand shuffle with a fixed cut probability . In the packet-reversal convention, each gap is cut independently with probability , and each resulting pa…
A 0.41275 lower bound for the three-dimensional Blaschke-Lebesgue problem
Yunjiang Jiang
We prove that every convex body of constant width satisfies \[ \operatorname{Vol}(K)\ge \frac{1651}{4000}w^3=0.41275\,w^3. \] This improves the certifi…
Entropy bounds and global couplings for union-closed families
Yunjiang Jiang
We give a computer-assisted proof that every finite union-closed family containing a nonempty set has an element in at least 0.38288525 of its members. The argument combines indepe…
Resolvent characteristics and quadratic mixing of Kac's walk on
Yunjiang Jiang
We study the coordinate-plane Kac walk on with independent uniform rotation angles. For the unnormalized Hilbert-Schmidt Riemannian distance, we prove that the Was…
