Tight Bounds for the Cover Time of Multiple Random Walks
We study the cover time of multiple random walks. Given a graph G of n vertices, assume that k independent random walks start from the same vertex. The parameter of interest is the...

Random Walks on Colored Graphs
This thesis introduces a model of a random walk on a colored undirected graph. Such a graph has a single vertex set and   distinct sets of edges, each of which has a color. A par...

Biased Random Walks
How much can an imperfect source of randomness affect an algorithm? We examine several simple questions of this type concerning the long-term behavior of a random walk on a finite...

Random Walk on Directed Dynamic Graphs
Dynamic graphs have emerged as an appropriate model to capture the changing nature of many modern networks, such as peer-to-peer overlays and mobile ad hoc networks. Most of the re...

An Analysis of Random-Walk Cuckoo Hashing
In this paper, we provide a polylogarithmic bound that holds with high probability on the insertion time for cuckoo hashing under the random-walk insertion method. Cuckoo hashing ...
