Markov Chain Simulations of Binary Matrices

We consider Markov chains to simulate graphs with a fixed degree sequence and binary matrices with fixed row and column sums. By means of a combinatorial construction, we bound the subdominant eigenvalues of the chains. Under certain additional conditions, we show that the bounds are polynomial func...

Zusammenfassung:We consider Markov chains to simulate graphs with a fixed degree sequence and binary matrices with fixed row and column sums. By means of a combinatorial construction, we bound the subdominant eigenvalues of the chains. Under certain additional conditions, we show that the bounds are polynomial functions of the degree sequences and the row and column sums, respectively.
