A Local Switch Markov Chain on Given Degree Graphs with Application in Connectivity of Peer-to-Peer Networks
We study a switch Markov chain on regular graphs, where switches are allowed only between links that are at distance 3; we call this the Flip. The motivation for studying the Flip...

Inducing Hidden Markov Models to Model Long-Term Dependencies
We propose in this paper a novel approach to the induction of the structure of Hidden Markov Models. The induced model is seen as a lumped process of a Markov chain. It is construc...

The Metropolized Partial Importance Sampling MCMC Mixes Slowly on Minimum Reversal Rearrangement Paths
Markov chain Monte Carlo has been the standard technique for inferring the posterior distribution of genome rearrangement scenarios under a Bayesian approach. We present here a neg...

Edge isoperimetry and rapid mixing on matroids and geometric Markov chains
We show how to bound the mixing time and log-Sobolev constants of Markov chains by bounding the edge-isoperimetry of their underlying graphs. To do this we use two recent techniqu...

A Markov Chain Model Checker
Markov chains are widely used in the context of performance and reliability evaluation of systems of various nature. Model checking of such chains with respect to a given (branchin...
