6 Discrete Markov Chains Discrete homogeneous Markov chain in an N-dimensional state space, p(t+ 1)=Wp(t) p i (t+ 1)= W ij p j (t). j Normalization of probabilities requires that W is a stochastic matrix, W ij 0 for all i,j and W ij = 1 for all j. i Implies that generally σ(w) {z; z 1}. If W satisfies a detailed balance condition, then σ(w) [ 1,1]. 6 / 33

7 Spectral Properties Relaxation Time Spectra Perron-Frobenius Theorems: exactly one eigenvalue λ µ 1 =+1 for every irreducible component µ of state space. Assuming absence of cycles, all other eigenvalues satisfy λ µ α <1, α 1. If system is overall irreducible: equilibrium is unique and convergence to equilibrium is exponential in time, as long as N remains finite: Identify relaxation times ( p(t)=w t p(0)=p eq + λ t α v α wα,p(0) ) α( 1) τ α = 1 ln λ α spectrum of W relates to spectrum of relaxation times. 7 / 33

10 Markov matrices defined in terms of random graphs Interested in behaviour of Markov chains for large N, and transition matrices describing complex systems. Define in terms of weighted random graphs. Start from a rate matrix Γ=(Γ ij )=(c ij K ij ) on a random graph specified by a connectivity matrix C =(c ij ), and edge weights K ij > 0. Set Markov transition matrix elements to Γ ij Γ j, i j, W ij = 1, i = j, and Γ j = 0, 0, otherwise, whereγ j = i Γ ij. 10 / 33

11 Symmetrization Markov transition matrix can be symmetrized by a similarity transformation, if it satisfies a detailed balance condition w.r.t. an equilibrium distribution p i = p eq i W ij p j = W ji p i Symmetrized by W = P 1/2 WP 1/2 with P = diag(p i ) W ij = 1 pi W ij pj = W ji Symmetric structure is inherited by transformed master-equation operator M = P 1/2 MP 1/2, with M ij = W ij δ ij. Results so far restricted to this case. 11 / 33

12 Applications I Unbiased Random Walk Unbiased random walks on complex networks: K ij = 1; transitions to neighbouring vertices with equal probability: W ij = c ij k j, i j, and W ii = 1 on isolated sites (k i = 0). Symmetrized version is W ij = c ij ki k j, i j, and W ii = 1 on isolated sites. Symmetrized master-equation operator known as normalized graph Laplacian c ij, i j ki k j L ij = 1, i = j,and k i 0 0, otherwise. 12 / 33

13 Applicatons II Non-uniform Edge Weights Internet traffic (hopping of data packages between routers) Relaxation in complex energy landscapes; Kramers transition rates for transitions between long-lived states; e.g.: Γ ij = c ij exp { β(v ij E j ) } with energies E i and barriers V ij from some random distribution. generalized trap models. Markov transition matrices of generalized trap models satisfy a detailed balance condition with p i = Γ i Z e βe i can be symmetrized. 13 / 33

15 Spectral Density and Resolvent Spectral density from resolvent ρ A (λ)= 1 πn Im Tr [ λ ε 1I A ] 1, λ ε = λ iε Express inverse matrix elements as Gaussian averages [S F Edwards & R C Jones (1976)] [ λε 1I A ] 1 ij = i u i u j, where... is an average over the multi-variate complex Gaussian P(u)= 1 { exp i ( u, [ λ ] )} ε 1I A u Z N 2 Spectral density expressed in terms of single site-variances ρ A (λ)= 1 πn Re u 2 i, i 15 / 33

17 Large Single Instances - Contd. Same reasoning for the P (i) j (u j ) generates a recursion, { P (i) j (u j ) exp i } 2 λ ε u 2 j l j\i } du l exp {ia jl u j u l P (j) l (u l ). Cavity recursions self-consistently solved by (complex) Gaussians. { P (i) j (u j )= ω (i) j /2π exp 1 } 2 ω(i) j u 2 j, generate recursion for inverse cavity variances ω (i) j A = iλ ε + 2 jl l j\i ω (j). l Solve iteratively on single instances for N = O(10 5 ) 17 / 33

18 Thermodynamic Limit Recursions for inverse cavity variances can be interpreted as stochastic recursions, generating a self-consistency equation for their pdf π(ω).

20 General Markov Matrices Same structure superficially; first: transformation u i u i / Γ i on non-isolated sites second: differences due to column constraints ( dependencies between matrix elements beyond degree) with π(ω)= k 1p(k) k c Ω k 1 = k 1 ν=1 k 1 ν=1 [ dπ(ω ν ) iλ ε K ν + ω ν + iλ ε K ν δ ( ω Ω k 1 ) {K ν } In terms of these ρ(λ)=p(0)δ(λ 1)+ 1 k k π Re p(k) dπ(ω l ) ν=1 K ν k 1 ν=1 Ω k ({ω ν,k ν }) {K ν } K 2 ν ]. 20 / 33
