We consider information dissemination in a large $n$-user wireless network in which $k$ users wish to share a unique message with all other users. Each of the $n$ users only has knowledge of its own contents and state information; this…

We give faster algorithms for producing sparse approximations of the transition matrices of $k$-step random walks on undirected, weighted graphs. These transition matrices also form graphs, and arise as intermediate objects in a variety of…

A randomly walking quantum particle evolving by Schr\"odinger's equation searches for a unique marked vertex on the "simplex of complete graphs" in time $\Theta(N^{3/4})$. In this paper, we give a weighted version of this graph that…

Researchers have designed many algorithms to measure the distances between graph nodes, such as average hitting times of random walks, cosine distances from DeepWalk, personalized PageRank, etc. Successful although these algorithms are,…

Various applications of graphs, in particular applications related to finding shortest paths, naturally get inputs with real weights on the edges. However, for algorithmic or visualization reasons, inputs with integer weights would often be…

Shelah Spencer [ShSp:304] proved the 0-1 law for the random graphs G(n,p_n), p_n=n^{- alpha}, alpha in (0,1) irrational (set of nodes in [n]= {1, ...,n}, the edges are drawn independently, probability of edge is p_n). One may wonder what…

We give an algorithm for computing exact maximum flows on graphs with $m$ edges and integer capacities in the range $[1, U]$ in $\widetilde{O}(m^{\frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{328}} \log U)$ time. For sparse graphs with polynomially bounded…

In a directed graph $G=(V,E)$ with a capacity on every edge, a \emph{bottleneck path} (or \emph{widest path}) between two vertices is a path maximizing the minimum capacity of edges in the path. For the single-source all-destination version…

Majority dynamics on a graph $G$ is a deterministic process such that every vertex updates its $\pm 1$-assignment according to the majority assignment on its neighbor simultaneously at each step. Benjamini, Chan, O'Donnel, Tamuz and Tan…

In this paper, we present an experimental analysis of the asynchronous push & pull rumour spreading protocol. This protocol is, to date, the best-performing rumour spreading protocol for simple, scalable, and robust information…

A common way to accelerate shortest path algorithms on graphs is the use of a bidirectional search, which simultaneously explores the graph from the start and the destination. It has been observed recently that this strategy performs…

A classical result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi states that every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(1/2+ o(1))n$ contains every $n$-vertex tree with maximum degree $O(n/\log{n})$ as a subgraph, and the bounds on…

One model of real-life spreading processes is First Passage Percolation (also called SI model) on random graphs. Social interactions often follow bursty patterns, which are usually modelled with i.i.d.~heavy-tailed passage times on edges.…

We identify a sharp separation in the streaming space complexity of Maximum Cut when the algorithm must output an approximate cut (rather than only the approximate value). For dense graphs, we show that $O(n/\varepsilon^2)$ space is…

Real life networks are generally modelled as scale free networks. Information diffusion in such networks in decentralised environment is a difficult and resource consuming affair. Gossip algorithms have come up as a good solution to this…

Graphical data arises naturally in several modern applications, including but not limited to internet graphs, social networks, genomics and proteomics. The typically large size of graphical data argues for the importance of designing…

Over the last decade, PageRank has gained importance in a wide range of applications and domains, ever since it first proved to be effective in determining node importance in large graphs (and was a pioneering idea behind Google's search…

We study the problem of testing conductance in the setting of distributed computing and give a two-sided tester that takes $\mathcal{O}(\log(n) / (\epsilon \Phi^2))$ rounds to decide if a graph has conductance at least $\Phi$ or is…

Majority dynamics on the binomial Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathsf{G}(n,p)$ with $p=\lambda/\sqrt{n}$ is studied. In this process, each vertex has a state in $\{0,1\}$ and at each round, every vertex adopts the state of the majority of its…

The power law is useful in describing count phenomena such as network degrees and word frequencies. With a single parameter, it captures the main feature that the frequencies are linear on the log-log scale. Nevertheless, there have been…
