We prove that a stochastic process of pure coagulation has at any timet≥ 0 a time-dependent Gibbs distribution if and only if the rates ψ(i,j) of single coagulations are of the form ψ(i;j) =if(j) +jf(i), wherefis an arbitrary nonnegative function on the set of positive integers. We also obtain a recurrence relation for weights of these Gibbs distributions that allow us to derive the general form of the solution and the explicit solutions in three particular cases of the functionf. For the three corresponding models, we study the probability of coagulation into one giant cluster by timet> 0.

We develop a short-step interior point method to optimize a linear function over a convex body assuming that one only knows a membership oracle for this body. The approach is based a sketch of a universal interior point method using the so-called entropic barrier. It is well known that the gradient and Hessian of the entropic barrier can be approximated by sampling from Boltzmann-Gibbs distributions and the entropic barrier was shown to be self-concordant. The analysis of our algorithm uses properties of the entropic barrier, mixing times for hit-and-run random walks, approximation quality guarantees for the mean and covariance of a log-concave distribution, and results on inexact Newton-type methods.
