We study graph-theoretic properties of the trace of a random walk on a random graph. We show that for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists $C>1$ such that the trace of the simple random walk of length $(1+\varepsilon)n\ln{n}$ on the random…

For integer $n$, the $n$-iterated line graph $L^n(G)$ of an undirected graph $G$ is defined to be $L(L^{n-1}(G))$, where $L^1(G)$ is the line graph $L(G)$ of $G$. In this paper we introduce hamiltonian path index. Hamiltonian path index,…

We prove the existence of an oblivious routing scheme that is $\mathrm{poly}(\log n)$-competitive in terms of $(congestion + dilation)$, thus resolving a well-known question in oblivious routing. Concretely, consider an undirected network…
