Improved bounds for randomly colouring simple hypergraphs

Weiming Feng, Heng Guo, Jiaheng Wang

We study the problem of sampling almost uniform proper -colourings in -uniform simple hypergraphs with maximum degree . For any , if and $q \…

Local-to-Global Contraction in Simplicial Complexes

Heng Guo, Giorgos Mousa

We give a local-to-global principle for relative entropy contraction in simplicial complexes. This is similar to the local-to-global principle for variances obtained by Alev and La…

Rapid mixing from spectral independence beyond the Boolean domain

Weiming Feng, Heng Guo, Yitong Yin +1

We extend the notion of spectral independence (introduced by Anari, Liu, and Oveis Gharan [ALO20]) from the Boolean domain to general discrete domains. This property characterises…

Fast sampling and counting k-SAT solutions in the local lemma regime

Weiming Feng, Heng Guo, Yitong Yin +1

We give new algorithms based on Markov chains to sample and approximately count satisfying assignments to -uniform CNF formulas where each variable appears at most times. Fo…

Zeros of ferromagnetic 2-spin systems

Heng Guo, Jingcheng Liu, Pinyan Lu

We study zeros of the partition functions of ferromagnetic 2-state spin systems in terms of the external field, and obtain new zero-free regions of these systems via a refinement o…

Perfect sampling from spatial mixing

Weiming Feng, Heng Guo, Yitong Yin

We introduce a new perfect sampling technique that can be applied to general Gibbs distributions and runs in linear time if the correlation decays faster than the neighborhood grow…
