We study connections between distributed local algorithms, finitary factors of iid processes, and descriptive combinatorics in the context of regular trees. We extend the Borel determinacy technique of Marks coming from descriptive…

We consider the massively parallel computation (MPC) model, which is a theoretical abstraction of large-scale parallel processing models such as MapReduce. In this model, assuming the widely believed 1-vs-2-cycles conjecture, solving many…
