Given a connected graph $G$, the Randi\'c index $R(G)$ is the sum of $\tfrac{1}{\sqrt{d(u)d(v)}}$ over all edges $\{u,v\}$ of $G$, where $d(u)$ and $d(v)$ are the degree of vertices $u$ and $v$ respectively. Let $q(G)$ be the largest…

Aldous and Fill conjectured that the maximum relaxation time for the random walk on a connected regular graph with $n$ vertices is $(1+o(1)) \frac{3n^2}{2\pi^2}$. This conjecture can be rephrased in terms of the spectral gap as follows: the…
