Random Walks and the Best Meeting Time for Trees

Andrew Beveridge, Ari Holcombe Pomerance

We consider random walks on a tree $G = (V, E)$ with stationary distribution $I ¨ _{v} = deg (v) /2∣ E ∣$ for $v \in V$ . Let the hitting time $H (v, w)$ denote the expected number of s…

Random Walks and the Meeting Time for Trees

Andrew Beveridge, Ben Bridenbaugh, Ari Holcombe Pomerance

Consider a random walk on a tree $G = (V, E)$ . For $v, w \in V$ , let the hitting time $H (v, w)$ denote the expected number of steps required for the random walk started at $v$ to reach…
