Sharp convergence to equilibrium of interacting particle systems

Abstract: In this seminar we will discuss the mixing times of Markov chains. We will exhibit classical examples of card shuffles and use them to introduce some interesting particle systems. Furthermore, we will show some recent results and some open problems which may be of interest not only for probability theory researchers but also for the ones who work with analysis, pdes or spectral graph theory.
