We study the cover time of a random graph chosen uniformly at random from the set of graphs with vertex set [ n ] and degree sequence d = ( d i ) i = 1 n . In a previous work (Abdullah, Cooper, and Frieze, Discrete Math 312 (2012), 3146–3163), the asymptotic cover time was obtained under a number of assumptions on d , the most significant being that d i ≥ 3 for all i . Here we replace this assumption by d i ≥ 2. As a corollary, we establish the asymptotic cover time for the 2‐core of the emerging giant component of G ( n , p ) . © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
