Majority dynamics on finite trees

Combinatorics 2025-07-08 v1 Probability

Abstract

For an arbitrary finite tree TT, we find the exact value of the wort-case stabilisation time of majority dynamics on TT. We also prove that for a perfect rooted cubic tree TT with diameter DD and uniformly random initial opinions, the dynamics stabilises in time τ(D/4,D/3)\tau\in(D/4,D/3) with high probability.
