Abstract

The Local Lemma has been a powerful tool in probabilistic combinatorics. Recent advances by Moser and Tardos have provided an algorithmic variant of the Local Lemma. We provide an overview of the analysis of their algorithm, and provide an implementation of the algorithm to a hypergraph coloring problem.
