Abstract
The Glauber dynamics is one of the most practiced and extensively studied methods for sampling the Ising model on lattices. I will survey a number of new results on the mixing of the dynamics at high, critical and low temperatures.
Joint work with Eyal Lubetzky, Fabio Martinelli, and Fabio Toninelli.
