Random walks on simple graphs in connection with electrical resistor networks lead to the definition of Markov chains with transition probability matrix in terms of electrical conductances. We extend this definition to an effective…

We show that the edges crossed by a random walk in a network form a recurrent graph a.s. In fact, the same is true when those edges are weighted by the number of crossings.

We introduce the notion of a network's conduciveness, a probabilistically interpretable measure of how the network's structure allows it to be conducive to roaming agents, in certain conditions, from one portion of the network to another.…

In certain instances an electric network transforms in natural ways by the addition or removal of an edge. This can have interesting consequences for random walks, in light of the known relationships between electric resistance and random…

We show that in any graph, the average length of a flow path in an electrical flow between the endpoints of a random edge is $O(\log^2 n)$. This is a consequence of a more general result which shows that the spectral norm of the entrywise…
