Abstract

In this paper, some classes of discrete functions of $k$-valued logic are considered, that depend on sets of their variables in a particular way. Obtained results allow to "construct" these functions and to present them in their tabular, analytical or matrix form, that is, as hypercubes, and in particular Latin hypercubes. Results connected with identifying of variables of some classes of functions are obtained.

Pimp my fixpoint: sofic realization of multidimensional substitution-based shift spaces

In symbolic dynamics, the fixed-point construction from arXiv:0910.2415 defines shift spaces of finite type whose configurations embed infinite hierarchies of tilings. This article provides a "black box" abstraction of this method phrased in terms of substitutions and $S$-adic limit spaces operating over sequences of increasingly large alphabets. By quantifying the amount of information computed by the substitutions at each level, and using a suitable parallel model of computation, we provide a simple positive criterion of multidimensional soficity that generalizes classical examples from the literature.

Flip Dynamics for Sampling Colorings: Improving $(11/6-ε)$ Using a Simple Metric

We present improved bounds for randomly sampling $k$-colorings of graphs with maximum degree $Δ$; our results hold without any further structural assumptions on the graph. The Glauber dynamics is a simple single-site update Markov chain. Jerrum (1995) proved an optimal $O(n\log{n})$ mixing-time bound for Glauber dynamics whenever $k>2Δ$ where $Δ$ is the maximum degree of the input graph. This bound was improved by Vigoda (1999) to $k>(11/6)Δ$ using a "flip" dynamics which recolors (small) maximal two-colored components in each step. Vigoda's result was the best known for general graphs for 20 years until Chen et al. (2019) established optimal mixing of the flip dynamics for $k>(11/6-\varepsilon)Δ$ where $\varepsilon\approx 10^{-5}$. We present the first substantial improvement over these results. We prove an optimal mixing-time bound of $O(n\log{n})$ for the flip dynamics when $Δ\geq125$ and $k\geq1.809Δ$. This yields, through recent spectral independence results, an optimal $O(n\log{n})$ mixing time for the Glauber dynamics for every fixed $Δ\geq125$ in the same range of $k/Δ$. Our proof utilizes path coupling with a simple weighted Hamming distance for "unblocked" neighbors.
