Abstract We present an affine-invariant random walk for drawing uniform random samples from a convex body
$mathcal{K} subset mathbb{R}^n$
that uses maximum-volume inscribed ellipsoids, known as John’s ellipsoids, for the proposal distribution. Our algorithm makes steps using uniform sampling from the John’s ellipsoid of the symmetrization of
$mathcal{K}$
at the current point. We show that from a warm start, the random walk mixes in
${widetilde{O}}!left(n^7
ight)$
steps, where the log factors hidden in the
${widetilde{O}}$
depend only on constants associated with the warm start and desired total variation distance to uniformity. We also prove polynomial mixing bounds starting from any fixed point x such that for any chord pq of
$mathcal{K}$
containing x,
$left|log frac{|p-x|}{|q-x|}
ight|$
is bounded above by a polynomial in n.
