Spectral Gaps of Hit-and-Run and Coordinate Hit-and-Run

For any convex body $\mathcal{K}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}$ containing a unit ball, the spectral gap of Hit-and-Run is $Ω(1/(n^2 C_{\mathsf{PI}}))$, where $C_{\mathsf{PI}}$ is the Poincaré constant of the uniform distribution $π$ over $\mathc…

For any convex body $\mathcal{K}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}$ containing a unit ball, the spectral gap of Hit-and-Run is $Ω(1/(n^2 C_{\mathsf{PI}}))$, where $C_{\mathsf{PI}}$ is the Poincaré constant of the uniform distribution $π$ over $\mathcal{K}$. This implies that Hit-and-Run…
