摘要
The short-term behavior of random walks on graphs is studied, in particular, the rate at which a random walk discovers new vertices and edges. A conjecture by Linial, that the expected time to find N distinct vertices is O(N-3) is proved. In addition, upper bounds of O(M(2)) on the expected time to traverse M edges and of O(MN) on the expected time to either visit N vertices or traverse M edges (whichever comes first) are proved.
