For a graph $G$ and an integer-valued function $\tau$ on its vertex set, a dynamic monopoly is a set of vertices of $G$ such that iteratively adding to it vertices $u$ of $G$ that have at least $\tau(u)$ neighbors in it eventually yields…

For a graph $G$ and an integer-valued threshold function $\tau$ on its vertex set, a dynamic monopoly is a set of vertices of $G$ such that iteratively adding to it vertices $u$ of $G$ that have at least $\tau(u)$ neighbors in it eventually…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\tau$ be an assignment of nonnegative integer thresholds to the vertices of $G$. A subset of vertices $D$ is said to be a $\tau$-dynamic monopoly, if $V(G)$ can be partitioned into subsets $D_0, D_1, \ldots, D_k$…

Let $G$ be a graph and ${\mathcal{\tau}}: V(G)\rightarrow \Bbb{N}\cup \{0\}$ be an assignment of thresholds to the vertices of $G$. A subset of vertices $D$ is said to be a dynamic monopoly corresponding to $(G, \tau)$ if the vertices of…

Let $G$ be any simple and undirected graph. By a threshold assignment $\tau$ in $G$ we mean any function $\tau:V(G)\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ such that $\tau(v)\leq d_G(v)$ for any vertex $v$ of $G$. Given a graph $G$ with a threshold…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\tau$ be an assignment of nonnegative integer thresholds to the vertices of $G$. Denote the average of thresholds in $\tau$ by $\bar{\tau}$. A subset of vertices $D$ is said to be a $\tau$-dynamic monopoly, if $V(G)$…

Let $G$ be a directed graph such that the in-degree of any vertex $G$ is at least one. Let also ${\mathcal{\tau}}: V(G)\rightarrow \Bbb{N}$ be an assignment of thresholds to the vertices of $G$. A subset $M$ of vertices of $G$ is called a…

The paper deals with a polling game on a graph. Initially, each vertex is colored white or black. At each round, each vertex is colored by the color shared by the majority of vertices in its neighborhood. We say that a set of vertices is a…

A widely studied model for influence diffusion in social networks are {\it target sets}. For a graph $G$ and an integer-valued threshold function $\tau$ on its vertex set, a {\it target set} or {\it dynamic monopoly} is a set of vertices of…

Let $G$ be a graph and ${\mathcal{\tau}}: V(G)\rightarrow \Bbb{N}$ be an assignment of thresholds to the vertices of $G$. A subset of vertices $D$ is said to be dynamic monopoly (or simply dynamo) if the vertices of $G$ can be partitioned…

A vertex cover of a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a set $X \subseteq V$ such that each edge of $G$ is incident to at least one vertex of $X$. A dominating set $D \subseteq V$ is a total dominating set of $G$ if the subgraph induced by $D$ has no…

Let $G$ be a graph, and let $\rho\in (0,1)$. For a set $D$ of vertices of $G$, let the set $H_{\rho}(D)$ arise by starting with the set $D$, and iteratively adding further vertices $u$ to the current set if they have at least $\lceil \rho…

Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, a vertex $u \in V$ ve-dominates all edges incident to any vertex of $N_G[u]$. A set $S \subseteq V$ is a ve-dominating set if for all edges $e\in E$, there exists a vertex $u \in S$ such that $u$ ve-dominates $e$.…

The basic idea of many effective immunization strategies is first to rank the importance of vertices according to the degrees of vertices and then remove the vertices from highest importance to lowest until the network becomes disconnected.…

The dynamics of infectious diseases spread is crucial in determining their risk and offering ways to contain them. We study sequential vaccination of individuals in networks. In the original (deterministic) version of the Firefighter…

The problem of identifying important players in a given network is of pivotal importance for viral marketing, public health management, network security and various other fields of social network analysis. In this work we find the most…

Dynamic monopolies were already defined and studied for the formulation of the phenomena of the spread of influence in social networks such as disease, opinion, adaptation of new product and etc. The elements of the network which have been…

Consider a graph $G=(V,E)$ and an initial random coloring where each vertex $v \in V$ is blue with probability $P_b$ and red otherwise, independently from all other vertices. In each round, all vertices simultaneously switch their color to…

The authors study an infinite dimensional duality theory finalized to obtain the existence of a strong duality between a convex optimization problem connected with the management of vaccinations and its Lagrange dual. Specifically, the…

Mobile guards on the vertices of a graph are used to defend the graph against an infinite sequence of attacks on vertices. A guard must move from a neighboring vertex to an attacked vertex (we assume attacks happen only at vertices…
