In this paper, the dynamics of heuristic algorithms for constructing small vertex covers (or independent sets) of finite-connectivity random graphs is analysed. In every algorithmic step, a vertex is chosen with respect to its vertex…

The propagation of rumours on social media poses an important threat to societies, so that various techniques for rumour detection have been proposed recently. Yet, existing work focuses on \emph{what} entities constitute a rumour, but…

We investigate rumor spreading in a generalized Maki-Thompson model with spontaneous stifling, evolving on quasi-transitive networks. Individuals are either ignorants, spreaders, or stiflers; spreaders stop by contact with other spreaders…

In this paper we consider a model of spreading information in heterogeneous systems wherein we have two kinds of objects. Some of them are active and others are passive. Active objects can, if they possess information, share it with an…

Consider a system of $K$ particles moving on the vertex set of a finite connected graph with at most one particle per vertex. If there is one, the particle at $x$ chooses one of the $\hbox{deg} (x)$ neighbors of its location uniformly at…

We have developed a steady state theory of complex transport networks used to model the flow of commodity, information, viruses, opinions, or traffic. Our approach is based on the use of the Markov chains defined on the graph…

We study push-pull rumour spreading in ultra-small-world models for social networks where the degrees follow a power-law distribution. In a non-geometric setting, Fountoulakis, Panagiotou and Sauerwald have shown that rumours always spread…

We study a random graph model in continuous time. Each vertex is partially copied with the same rate, i.e.\ an existing vertex is copied and every edge leading to the copied vertex is copied with independent probability $p$. In addition,…

We establish a bound for the classic PUSH-PULL rumor spreading protocol on arbitrary graphs, in terms of the vertex expansion of the graph. We show that O(log^2(n)/\alpha) rounds suffice with high probability to spread a rumor from a single…

We study the fundamental problem of information spreading (also known as gossip) in dynamic networks. In gossip, or more generally, $k$-gossip, there are $k$ pieces of information (or tokens) that are initially present in some nodes and the…

Motivated by multiple applications in social networks, nervous systems, and financial risk analysis, we consider the problem of learning the underlying (directed) influence graph or causal graph of a high-dimensional multivariate…

A simple random walk on a graph is a sequence of movements from one vertex to another where at each step an edge is chosen uniformly at random from the set of edges incident on the current vertex, and then transitioned to next vertex.…

We consider the following interacting particle system: There is a ``gas'' of particles, each of which performs a continuous-time simple random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, with jump rate $D_A$. These particles are called $A$-particles and move…

We study a rumour propagation model along the lines of \cite{lebensztayn2008disk} as a long-range percolation model on $\Z$. We begin by showing a sharp phase transition-type behaviour in the sense of exponential decay of the survival time…

Information dissemination is a fundamental problem in parallel and distributed computing. In its simplest variant, the broadcasting problem, a message has to be spread among all nodes of a graph. A prominent communication protocol for this…

Information propagation on graphs is a fundamental topic in distributed computing. One of the simplest models of information propagation is the push protocol in which at each round each agent independently pushes the current knowledge to a…

We consider the median dynamics process in general graphs. In this model, each vertex has an independent initial opinion uniformly distributed in the interval [0,1] and, with rate one, updates its opinion to coincide with the median of its…

Real networks are often dynamic. In response to it, analyses of algorithms on {\em dynamic networks} attract more and more attentions in network science and engineering. Random walks on dynamic graphs also have been investigated actively in…
