Monte Carlo Markov chain methods MCMC are mathematical tools used to simulate probability measures π defined on state spaces of high dimensions. The speed of convergence of this Markov chain X to its invariant state π is a natural question to study in this context.To measure the convergence rate of a Markov chain we use the total variation distance. It is well known that the convergence rate of a reversible Markov chain depends on its second largest eigenvalue in absolute value denoted by β!. An important part in the estimation of β! is the estimation of the second largest eigenvalue which is denoted by β1.Diaconis and Stroock (1991) introduced a method based on Poincaré inequality to obtain a bound for β1 for general finite state reversibl...
