This paper studies the relation between node deletion and algebraic connectivity for graphs with a hierarchical structure represented by layers. To capture this structure, the concepts of layered path graph and its (sub)graph cone are…
We study the distribution of optimal path lengths in random graphs with random weights associated with each link (``disorder''). With each link $i$ we associate a weight $\tau_i = \exp(ar_i)$ where $r_i$ is a random number taken from a…
The restoration lemma by Afek, Bremler-Barr, Kaplan, Cohen, and Merritt [Dist. Comp. '02] proves that, in an undirected unweighted graph, any replacement shortest path avoiding a failing edge can be expressed as the concatenation of two…
In this paper we consider spatial networks that realize a balance between an infrastructure cost (the cost of wire needed to connect the network in space) and communication efficiency, measured by average shortest pathlength. A global…
Robustness of network of networks (NON) has been studied only for dependency coupling (J.X. Gao et. al., Nature Physics, 2012) and only for connectivity coupling (E.A. Leicht and R.M. D Souza, arxiv:0907.0894). The case of network of n…
We study the level spacing distribution p(s) in the spectrum of random networks. According to our numerical results, the shape of p(s) in the Erdos-Renyi (E-R) random graph is determined by the average degree <k>, and p(s) undergoes a…
We investigate and quantify the interplay between topology and ability to send specific signals in complex networks. We find that in a majority of investigated real-world networks the ability to communicate is favored by the network…
We consider the problem of computing shortest paths in hybrid networks, in which nodes can make use of different communication modes. For example, mobile phones may use ad-hoc connections via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi in addition to the cellular…
We consider the standard site percolation model on the three dimensional cubic lattice. Starting solely with the hypothesis that $\theta(p)>0$, we prove that, for any $\alpha>0$, there exists $\kappa>0$ such that, with probability larger…

In this paper, we study distributed graph algorithms in networks in which the nodes have a limited communication capacity. Many distributed systems are built on top of an underlying networking infrastructure, for example by using a virtual…
We investigate by numerical simulation and finite-size analysis the impact of long-range shortcuts on a spatially embedded transportation network. Our networks are built from two-dimensional ($d=2$) square lattices to be improved by the…
We study optimal distributed first-order optimization algorithms when the network (i.e., communication constraints between the agents) changes with time. This problem is motivated by scenarios where agents experience network malfunctions.…
Shortest paths problems are subject to extensive studies in classic distributed models such as the CONGEST or Congested Clique. These models dictate how nodes may communicate in order to determine shortest paths in a distributed input…
We present percolation strategies based on multipartite measurements to propagate entanglement in quantum networks. We consider networks spanned on regular lattices whose bonds correspond to pure but non-maximally entangled pairs of qubits,…
We investigate the behaviour of the shortest path on a directed two-dimensional square lattice for bond percolation at the critical probability $p_c$ . We observe that flipping an edge lying on the shortest path has a non-local effect in…
Using Monte-Carlo simulations, we determine the scaling form for the probability distribution of the shortest path, $\ell$, between two lines in a 3-dimensional percolation system at criticality; the two lines can have arbitrary positions,…
In this paper we quantify our limited information horizon, by measuring the information necessary to locate specific nodes in a network. To investigate different ways to overcome this horizon, and the interplay between communication and…
Navigation process is studied on a variant of the Watts-Strogatz small world network model embedded on a square lattice. With probability $p$, each vertex sends out a long range link, and the probability of the other end of this link…
In the load-balancing problem, we have an $n$-vertex bipartite graph $G=(L, R, E)$ between a set of clients and servers. The goal is to find an assignment of all clients to the servers, while minimizing the maximum load on each server,…
