Vertex and edge expansion properties for rapid mixing

open access: yes, 2004
We show a strict hierarchy among various edge and vertex expansion properties of Markov chains. This gives easy proofs of a range of bounds, both classical and new, on chi-square distance, spectral gap and mixing time. The 2-gradient is then used to give
