Random walks are ubiquitous in the sciences, and they are interesting from both theoretical and practical perspectives. They are one of the most fundamental types of stochastic processes; can be used to model numerous phenomena, including…

Recently, it has been proposed that the natural connectivity can be used to efficiently characterise the robustness of complex networks. Natural connectivity quantifies the redundancy of alternative routes in a network by evaluating the…

Complex numbers define the relationship between entities in many situations. A canonical example would be the off-diagonal terms in a Hamiltonian matrix in quantum physics. Recent years have seen an increasing interest to extend the tools…

In network theory, the concept of effective resistance is a distance measure on a graph that relates the global network properties to individual connections between nodes. In addition, the Kron reduction method is a standard tool for…

Random walks are used for modeling various dynamics in, for example, physical, biological, and social contexts. Furthermore, their characteristics provide us with useful information on the phase transition and critical phenomena of even…

We study the inverse problem of determining the conductivity matrix of an electrical network from the prescribed knowledge of the magnitude of the induced current along the edges coupled with the imposed voltage or injected current on the…

Focusing on coupling between edges, we generalize the relationship between the normalized graph Laplacian and random walks on graphs by devising an appropriate normalization for the Hodge Laplacian -- the generalization of the graph…

Large unweighted directed graphs are commonly used to capture relations between entities. A fundamental problem in the analysis of such networks is to properly define the similarity or dissimilarity between any two vertices. Despite the…

Message-passing architectures struggle to sufficiently model long-range dependencies in node and graph prediction tasks. We propose a novel approach exploiting hierarchical graph structures and adaptive random walks to address this…

Recently, random walks on dynamic graphs have been studied because of their adaptivity to the time-varying structure of real-world networks. In general, there is a tremendous gap between static and dynamic graph settings for the lazy simple…

Effective resistance (ER) is an attractive way to interrogate the structure of graphs. It is an alternative to computing the eigen-vectors of the graph Laplacian. Graph laplacians are used to find low dimensional structures in high…

We study random walk among random conductance (RWRC) on complete graphs with N vertices. The conductances are i.i.d. and the sum of conductances emanating from a single vertex asymptotically has an infinitely divisible distribution…

The concept of effective resistance, originally introduced in electrical circuit theory, has been extended to the setting of graphs by interpreting each edge as a resistor. In this context, the effective resistance between two vertices…

We develop a generalized resistance geometry based on Kron reduction and effective resistance for directed graphs, paralleling classical undirected graph theory. For strongly connected directed graphs, we prove a Fiedler--Bapat identity…

We completely characterize when the free effective resistance of an infinite graph can be expressed in terms of simple hitting probabilities of the graphs random walk.

We consider the Dyson hierarchical graph $\mathcal{G}$, that is a weighted fully-connected graph, where the pattern of weights is ruled by the parameter $\sigma \in (1/2, 1]$. Exploiting the deterministic recursivity through which…

We consider random walks on dynamical networks where edges appear and disappear during finite time intervals. The process is grounded on three independent stochastic processes determining the walker's waiting-time, the up-time and down-time…

We define a random walk problem which admits analytic results, on a class of infinite periodic lattices which are directed and colored. Our approach is motivated from the fact that such lattices arise in string theoretic constructs of…

We study the problem of detecting a random walk on a graph from a sequence of noisy measurements at every node. There are two hypotheses: either every observation is just meaningless zero-mean Gaussian noise, or at each time step exactly…

In this paper we give a survey of methods used to calculate values of resistance distance (also known as effective resistance) in graphs. Resistance distance has played a prominent role not only in circuit theory and chemistry, but also in…
