Effective resistance on graphs and the epidemic quasimetric

Josh Ericson, Pietro Poggi-Corradini and Hainan Zhang

Vol. 7 (2014), No. 1, 97–124
Abstract

We introduce the epidemic quasimetric on graphs and study its behavior with respect to clustering techniques. In particular we compare its behavior to known objects such as the graph distance, effective resistance, and modulus of curve families.

Keywords
effective resistance, finite graphs, modulus of curve families
