In this paper, we present the first known example of a locally checkable labeling problem (LCL) that admits asymptotic distributed quantum advantage in the LOCAL model of distributed computing: our problem can be solved in $O(\log n)$…

Consider a computer network that consists of a path with $n$ nodes. The nodes are labeled with inputs from a constant-sized set, and the task is to find output labels from a constant-sized set subject to some local constraints---more…

We study the problem of distributed consensus in networks where the local agents have high-order ($n\ge 3$) integrator dynamics, and where all feedback is localized in that each agent has a bounded number of neighbors. We prove that no…

Large graphs are sometimes studied through their degree sequences (power law or regular graphs). We study graphs that are uniformly chosen with a given degree sequence. Under mild conditions, it is shown that sequences of such graphs have…
