How Many Vertices Does a Random Walk Miss in a Network with Moderately Increasing the Number of Vertices

2020 
Real networks are often dynamic. In response to it, analyses of algorithms on {\em dynamic networks} attract more and more attentions in network science and engineering. Random walks on dynamic graphs also have been investigated actively in more than a decade, where in most cases the edge set changes but the vertex set is static. The vertex sets are also dynamic in many real networks. Motivated by a new technology of the analysis of random walks on dynamic graphs, this paper introduces a simple model of graphs with increasing the number of vertices, and presents an analysis of random walks associated with the cover time on such graphs. In particular, we reveal that a random walk asymptotically covers the vertices all but a constant number if the vertex set grows {\em moderately}.
