We continue the study of the properties of graphs in which the ball of radius $r$ around each vertex induces a graph isomorphic to the ball of radius $r$ in some fixed vertex-transitive graph $F$, for various choices of $F$ and $r$. This is…
We study random walks with stochastic resetting to the initial position on arbitrary networks. We obtain the stationary probability distribution as well as the mean and global first passage times, which allow us to characterize the effect…
If a vertex $v$ in a graph $G$ has degree larger than the average of the degrees of its neighbors, we call it a groupie in $G$. In the current work, we study the behavior of groupie in random multipartite graphs with the link probability…
The graph obtained from the integer grid Z x Z by the removal of all horizontal edges that do not belong to the x-axis is called a comb. In a random walk on a graph, whenever a walker is at a vertex v, in the next step it will visit one of…
It is a celebrated fact that a simple random walk on an infinite $k$-ary tree for $k \geq 2$ returns to the initial vertex at most finitely many times during infinitely many transitions; it is called transient. This work points out the fact…
Consider a family of random ordered graph trees $(T_n)_{n\geq 1}$, where $T_n$ has $n$ vertices. It has previously been established that if the associated search-depth processes converge to the normalised Brownian excursion when rescaled…
In this paper, we discuss asymptotic behavior of the capacity of the range of symmetric simple random walks on finitely generated groups. We show the corresponding strong law of large numbers and central limit theorem.
Various graph algorithms have been developed with multiple random walks, the movement of several independent random walkers on a graph. Designing an efficient graph algorithm based on multiple random walks requires investigating multiple…
We give three different criteria for transience of a Branching Markov Chain. These conditions enable us to give a classification of Branching Random Walks in Random Environment (BRWRE) on Cayley Graphs in recurrence and transience. This…
The connective constant $\mu(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the asymptotic growth rate of the number of self-avoiding walks on $G$ from a given starting vertex. We survey three aspects of the dependence of the connective constant on the underlying…
A classical construction associates to a transient random walk on a discrete group $\Gamma$ a compact $\Gamma$-space $\partial_M \Gamma$ known as the Martin boundary. The resulting crossed product $C^*$-algebra $C(\partial_M \Gamma)…
We consider the random Cayley graphs of a sequence of finite nilpotent groups of diverging sizes $G=G(n)$, whose ranks and nilpotency classes are uniformly bounded. For some $k=k(n)$ such that $1\ll\log k \ll \log |G|$, we pick a random set…
In this paper, we investigate the exact asymptotic behavior of the connectivity probability in the Erdos-Renyi graph G(n,p), under different asymptotic assumptions on the edge probability p=p(n). We propose a novel approach based on the…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices and let $\mu_0$ be a probability measure on $V$. The act of moving to a randomly chosen neighbor leads to a sequence of probability measures supported on $V$ given by $\mu_{k+1} = A…
Dynamic graphs have emerged as an appropriate model to capture the changing nature of many modern networks, such as peer-to-peer overlays and mobile ad hoc networks. Most of the recent research on dynamic networks has only addressed the…
We establish and generalise several bounds for various random walk quantities including the mixing time and the maximum hitting time. Unlike previous analyses, our derivations are based on rather intuitive notions of local expansion…
In this paper, we consider a random geometric graph (RGG)~\(G\) on~\(n\) nodes with adjacency distance~\(r_n\) just below the Hamiltonicity threshold and construct Hamiltonian cycles using additional edges called bridges. The bridges by…
We study random walks in a random environment on a regular, rooted, coloured tree. The asymptotic behaviour of the walks is classified for ergodicity/transience in terms of the geometric properties of the matrix describing the random…
We consider a transitive action of a finitely generated group $G$ and the Schreier graph $\Gamma$ defined by this action for some fixed generating set. For a probability measure $\mu$ on $G$ with a finite first moment we show that if the…
Random walks on dynamic graphs have received increasingly more attention from different academic communities over the last decade. Despite the relatively large literature, little is known about random walks that construct the graph where…
