Graph-based Polyas urn: completion of the linear case


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Given a finite connected graph $G$, place a bin at each vertex. Two bins are called a pair if they share an edge of $G$. At discrete times, a ball is added to each pair of bins. In a pair of bins, one of the bins gets the ball with probability proportional to its current number of balls. Previous works proved that when $G$ is not balanced bipartite, the proportion of balls in the bins converges to a point $w(G)$ almost surely. We prove almost sure convergence for balanced bipartite graphs: the possible limit is either a single point $w(G)$ or a closed interval $mathcal J(G)$.
