Abstract: The expected time for a random walk on an undirected graph G = (V; E) to visit all the
vertices is O(jV jjEj) [AKLLR], and is O(jV j
2
) for regular graphs [KLNS]. Here we show that
both bounds hold even if we are required to traverse all the edges, although our bound for
regular graphs requires that the degree be jV j

for some ffi ! 1.

...(as happens on the barbell) There are a number of variations on the theme of Theorem 1, and we will give two. The first (due to Zuckerman [30], whose proof we follow) provides a nice illustration of probabilistic technique. Proposition 3 Write C e for the time to cover all...
