On defining Kemeny's constant for non-backtracking random walks

Abstract
We propose two possible definitions for a version of Kemeny's constant of a graph based on non-backtracking random walks (in place of the usual simple random walk). We show that these two definitions coincide for edge-transitive graphs, and give a condition generalizing edge-transitive for which equality holds, and investigate by how much they can differ in general. We compute our non-backtracking Kemeny's constant for several families of graphs.
