Abstract: In this paper, we use the eigenvalues of the random to random card shuffle to prove a sharp upper bound for the total variation mixing time. Combined with the lower bound due to Subag, we prove that this walk exhibits cutoff at 3/4 n log n - 1/4 n log log n with window of order n, answering a conjecture of Diaconis.
