The first provably ergodic algorithm for sampling the space of thick equilateral knots off-lattice, as a function of thickness, will be described. This algorithm is based on previous algorithms of applying random reflections. It is an off-lattice generalization of the pivot algorithm. This move to an off-lattice model provides a huge improvement in power and efficacy in that samples can have arbitrary values for parameters such as the thickness constraint, bending angle, and torsion, while the lattice forces these parameters into a small number of specific values. This benefit requires working in a manifold rather than a finite or countable space, which forces the use of more novel methods in Markov–Chain theory. To prove the validity of the algorithm, we describe a method for turning any knot into the regular planar polygon using only thickness non-decreasing moves. This approach ensures that the algorithm has a positive probability of connecting any two knots with the required thickness constraint which is used to show that the algorithm is ergodic. This ergodic sampling allows for a statistically valid method for estimating probability distributions of arbitrary functions on the space of thick knots.

Profiles of abrasive surfaces are analyzed by means of Markov chain theory. The Chapman-Kolmogorov equations, together with recurrent-event theory, are used to deduce theoretical distributions for such important statistics as the distances between effective cutting points and the lengths of lands on a worn grinding surface. Both first-order and second-order Markov chains are examined for their applicability to a stochastic model of the grinding process.
