Descripción: We consider random walks in Dirichlet random environment. Since the Dirichlet distribution is not uniformly elliptic, the annealed integrability of the exit time out of a given finite subset is a non-trivial question. In this paper we provide a simple and explicit equivalent condition for the integrability of Green functions and exit times on any finite directed graph. The proof relies on a quotienting procedure allowing for an induction argument on the cardinality of the graph. This integrability problem arises in the definition of Kalikow auxiliary random walk. Using a particular case of our condition, we prove a refined version of the ballisticity criterion given by Enriquez and Sabot.
