The importance of a node in a directed graph can be measured by its PageRank. The PageRank of a node is used in a number of application contexts - including ranking websites - and can be interpreted as the average portion of time spent at…
Distances in a network capture relations between nodes and are the basis of centrality, similarity, and influence measures. Often, however, the relevance of a node $u$ to a node $v$ is more precisely measured not by the magnitude of the…
How large a fraction of a graph must one explore to rank a small set of nodes according to their PageRank scores? We show that the answer is quite nuanced, and depends crucially on the interplay between the correctness guarantees one…
