Mixing time of Markov chains for the uniform 1-2 model

Zhongyang Li

Published 2017-03-17Version 1

A 1-2 model configuration is a subgraph of the hexagonal lattice satisfying the constraint that each vertex is incident to 1 or 2 edges in the subgraph. We introduce Markov chains to sample the 1-2 model configurations on finite hexagonal graphs under the uniform probability measure, and prove that the mixing time of these chains is polynomial in the size of the graphs.
