This paper looks at random regular simple graphs and considers nearest neighbor random walks on such graphs. This paper considers walks where the degree d of each vertex is around (logn)", where a is a constant which is at least 2 and where n is the number of vertices. By extending techniques of Dou

We find explicit values for the expected hitting times between neighboring vertices of random walks on edge-transitive graphs, extending prior results and allowing the computation of sharp upper and lower bounds for the expected cover times of those graphs.
A vertex-reinforced random walk on Z with exactly ÿve points in its essential range exhibits the behavior described by Theorem 1.3 of Pemantle and Volkov (Ann. Probab. 27 (1999) 1368) almost surely.
We give formulas, in terms of the number of pure k-cycles, for the expected hitting times between vertices at distances greater than 1 for random walks on edge-transitive graphs, extending our prior results for neighboring vertices and also extending results of Devroye-Sbihi and Biggs concerning dis
