Towards random uniform sampling of bipartite graphs with given degree sequence

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper we consider a simple Markov chain for bipartite graphs with given degree sequence on nn vertices. We show that the mixing time of this Markov chain is bounded above by a polynomial in nn in case of {\em semi-regular} degree sequence. The novelty of our approach lays in the construction of the canonical paths in Sinclair's method.
