Hitting times for second-order random walks
European Journal of Applied Mathematics, vol. 34, pp. 642–666, 2022
A second-order random walk on a graph or network is a random walk where transition probabilities depend not only on the present node but also on the previous one. A notable example is the non-backtracking random walk, where the walker is not allowed to revisit a node in one step. Second-order random walks can model …
