Human Information Processing with the Personal Memex
The m-variate extension requires introducing m sequences of matrices that satisfy conditions (1.1) and (1.2), with each pair from the n-th level satisfying condition (1.3); the proof requires only minor changes.
Asymptotic results for empirical measures of weighted sums of independent random variables
We therefore require that d ≥ 3, in addition to the requirements that G should be connected and non-bipartite, and these necessary conditions prove to be sufficient for fM to converge to the uniform distribution.
Non-backtracking random walks mix faster
This does not require that the measurement operators commute, nor that the final states be orthogonal, and in general requires feedback from the results of earlier measurements to the choice of later measurements.
Decomposing generalized measurements into continuous stochastic processes
For example, we have seen in Section 3.3 that computing S-eigenvalues requires g > 2h. A full analysis of this proviso will not be required here, because we only consider extensions in which we know a priori that computation is possible.

In the case of a ring, for example, a random walk requires an expected Θ(n2 ) steps to traverse a ring, whereas a simple traversal requires only n steps.
