Improved bounds for randomly sampling colorings via linear programming

Copyright © 2019 by SIAM. A well-known conjecture in computer science and statistical physics is that Glauber dynamics on the set of k-colorings of a graph G on n vertices with maximum degree ∆ is rapidly mixing for k ≥ ∆ + 2. In FOCS 1999, Vigoda [43] showed that the flip dynamics (and therefore al...
