Abstract

We provide an optimally mixing Markov chain for 6-colorings of the square grid. Furthermore, this implies that the uniform distribution on the set of such colorings has strong spatial mixing. Four and five are now the only remaining values of k for which it is not known whether there exists a rapidly mixing Markov chain for k-colorings of the square grid. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
