Abstract: D. Wilson~cite{[Wi]} in the 1990's described a simple and efficient algorithm based on loop-erased random walks to sample uniform spanning trees and more generally weighted trees or forests spanning a given graph. This algorithm provides a powerful tool in analyzing structures on networks and along this line of thinking, in recent works~cite{AG1,AG2,ACGM1,ACGM2} we focused on applications of spanning rooted forests on finite graphs. The resulting main conclusions are reviewed in this paper by collecting related theorems, algorithms, heuristics and numerical experiments. A first foundational part on determinantal structures and efficient sampling procedures is followed by four main applications: 1) a random-walk-based notion of well-distributed points in a graph 2) how to describe metastable dynamics in finite settings by means of Markov intertwining dualities 3) coarse graining schemes for networks and associated processes 4) wavelets-like pyramidal algorithms for graph signals.
