Lollipop graphs are extremal for commute times
نویسنده
چکیده
Consider a simple random walk on a connected graph G = (V; E). Let C(u; v) be the expected time taken for the walk starting at vertex u to reach vertex v and then go back to u again, i.e. the commute time for u and v, and

Hitting and commute times in large graphs are often misleading
Next to the shortest path distance, the second most popular distance function between vertices in a graph is the commute distance (resistance distance). For two vertices u and v, the hitting time Huv is the expected time it takes a random walk to travel from u to v. The commute time is its symmetrized version Cuv = Huv + Hvu. In our paper we study the behavior of hitting times and commute dista...
متن کاملThe Extremal Graphs for (Sum-) Balaban Index of Spiro and Polyphenyl Hexagonal Chains
As highly discriminant distance-based topological indices, the Balaban index and the sum-Balaban index of a graph $G$ are defined as $J(G)=frac{m}{mu+1}sumlimits_{uvin E} frac{1}{sqrt{D_{G}(u)D_{G}(v)}}$ and $SJ(G)=frac{m}{mu+1}sumlimits_{uvin E} frac{1}{sqrt{D_{G}(u)+D_{G}(v)}}$, respectively, where $D_{G}(u)=sumlimits_{vin V}d(u,v)$ is the distance sum of vertex $u$ in $G$, $m$ is the n...
متن کاملThe Signless Laplacian Estrada Index of Unicyclic Graphs
For a simple graph $G$, the signless Laplacian Estrada index is defined as $SLEE(G)=sum^{n}_{i=1}e^{q^{}_i}$, where $q^{}_1, q^{}_2, dots, q^{}_n$ are the eigenvalues of the signless Laplacian matrix of $G$. In this paper, we first characterize the unicyclic graphs with the first two largest and smallest $SLEE$'s and then determine the unique unicyclic graph with maximum $SLEE$ a...
متن کاملGeneralized Laplacians and First Transit Times for Directed Graphs
In this paper, we extend previous results on average commute-times for undirected graphs to fully-connected directed graphs, corresponding to irreducible Markov chains. We introduce an unsymmetrized generalized Laplacian matrix and show how its pseudo-inverse directly yields the one-way first-transit times and round-trip commute times with formulas almost matching those for the undirected graph...
متن کاملHitting and commute times in large random neighborhood graphs
In machine learning, a popular tool to analyze the structure of graphs is the hitting time and the commute distance (resistance distance). For two vertices u and v, the hitting time Huv is the expected time it takes a random walk to travel from u to v. The commute distance is its symmetrized version Cuv = Huv +Hvu. In our paper we study the behavior of hitting times and commute distances when t...
