Abstract

We consider simple random walk on a realization of an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph that is asymptotically almost surely (a.a.s.) connected. We show a Central Limit Theorem (CLT) for the average starting hitting time, i.e. the expected time it takes the random walker on average to first hit a vertex jj when starting in a fixed vertex ii. The average is taken with respect to πj\pi_j, the invariant measure of the random walk.
