    Cutoff Phenomenon for Random Walks on Kneser Graphs

    Full text link
    The cutoff phenomenon for an ergodic Markov chain describes a sharp transition in the convergence to its stationary distribution, over a negligible period of time, known as cutoff window. We study the cutoff phenomenon for simple random walks on Kneser graphs, which is a family of ergodic Markov chains. Given two integers nn and kk, the Kneser graph K(2n+k,n)K(2n+k,n) is defined as the graph with vertex set being all subsets of {1,
,2n+k}\{1,\ldots,2n+k\} of size nn and two vertices AA and BB being connected by an edge if A∩B=∅A\cap B =\emptyset. We show that for any k=O(n)k=O(n), the random walk on K(2n+k,n)K(2n+k,n) exhibits a cutoff at 12log⁥1+k/n(2n+k)\frac{1}{2}\log_{1+k/n}{(2n+k)} with a window of size O(nk)O(\frac{n}{k})

    A projekt cĂ©lkitƱzĂ©seit sikerĂŒlt megvalĂłsĂ­tani. A nĂ©gy Ă©v sorĂĄn több mint szĂĄz kivĂĄlĂł eredmĂ©ny szĂŒletett, amibƑl eddig 84 dolgozat jelent meg a tĂ©ma legkivĂĄlĂłbb folyĂłirataiban, mint Combinatorica, Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Journal of Graph Theory, Random Graphs and Structures, stb. SzĂĄmos rĂ©gĂłta fennĂĄllĂł sejtĂ©st bebizonyĂ­tottunk, egĂ©sz rĂ©gi nyitott problĂ©mĂĄt megoldottunk hipergrĂĄfokkal kapcsolatban illetve kapcsolĂłdĂł terĂŒleteken. A problĂ©mĂĄk nĂ©melyike sok Ă©ve, olykor több Ă©vtizede nyitott volt. Nem egy közvetlen kutatĂĄsi eredmĂ©ny, de szintĂ©n bizonyos Ă©rtĂ©kmĂ©rƑ, hogy a rĂ©sztvevƑk egyike a NorvĂ©g KirĂĄlyi AkadĂ©mia tagja lett Ă©s elnyerte a Steele dĂ­jat. | We managed to reach the goals of the project. We achieved more than one hundred excellent results, 84 of them appeared already in the most prestigious journals of the subject, like Combinatorica, Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Journal of Graph Theory, Random Graphs and Structures, etc. We proved several long standing conjectures, solved quite old open problems in the area of hypergraphs and related subjects. Some of the problems were open for many years, sometimes for decades. It is not a direct research result but kind of an evaluation too that a member of the team became a member of the Norvegian Royal Academy and won Steele Prize
