Abstract
Consider the Bernoulli bond percolation on a graph G and suppose there is an infinite cluster C. We would like to compare C with G by running a random walk on C, hoping that G and C share many properties. We shall examine recurrence and speed of a random walk, and collisions of two independent random walks.
