In this paper, we look at the problem of randomized leader election in synchronous distributed networks with a special focus on the message complexity. We provide an algorithm that solves the implicit version of leader election (where…

This paper concerns {\em randomized} leader election in synchronous distributed networks. A distributed leader election algorithm is presented for complete $n$-node networks that runs in O(1) rounds and (with high probability) uses only…

Leader election is one of the basic problems in distributed computing. For anonymous networks, the task of leader election is formulated as follows: every node v of the network must output a simple path, which is coded as a sequence of port…

We study the message complexity of leader election in synchronous networks of diameter two. Our main contribution is a refined analysis of the randomized algorithm proposed by Chatterjee et al. [DC, 2020]. In their work, the authors…

This paper focuses on studying the message complexity of implicit leader election in synchronous distributed networks of diameter two. Kutten et al.\ [JACM 2015] showed a fundamental lower bound of $\Omega(m)$ ($m$ is the number of edges in…

We study the time needed for deterministic leader election in the ${\cal LOCAL}$ model, where in every round a node can exchange any messages with its neighbors and perform any local computations. The topology of the network is unknown and…

This paper concerns designing distributed algorithms that are singularly optimal, i.e., algorithms that are simultaneously time and message optimal, for the fundamental leader election problem in networks. Our main result is a randomized…

This paper concerns designing distributed algorithms that are {\em singularly optimal}, i.e., algorithms that are {\em simultaneously} time and message {\em optimal}, for the fundamental leader election problem in {\em asynchronous}…

This paper presents a randomized self-stabilizing algorithm that elects a leader $r$ in a general $n$-node undirected graph and constructs a spanning tree $T$ rooted at $r$. The algorithm works under the synchronous message passing network…

Studying distributed computing through the lens of algebraic topology has been the source of many significant breakthroughs during the last two decades, especially in the design of lower bounds or impossibility results for deterministic…

Leader election is a basic symmetry breaking problem in distributed computing. All nodes of a network have to agree on a single node, called the leader. If the nodes of the network have distinct labels, then agreeing on a single node means…

We consider leader election in anonymous radio networks modeled as simple undirected connected graphs. Nodes communicate in synchronous rounds. Nodes are anonymous and execute the same deterministic algorithm, so symmetry can be broken only…

We consider the problem of electing a leader among nodes in a highly dynamic network where the adversary has unbounded capacity to insert and remove nodes (including the leader) from the network and change connectivity at will. We present a…

Censor-Hillel, Cohen, Gelles, and Sela (PODC 2022 & Distributed Computing 2023) studied fully-defective asynchronous networks, where communication channels may suffer an extreme form of alteration errors, rendering messages completely…

Leader election is one of the fundamental problems in distributed computing: a single node, called the leader, must be specified. This task can be formulated either in a weak way, where one node outputs 'leader' and all other nodes output…

We study the self-stabilizing leader election problem in anonymous $n$-nodes networks. Achieving self-stabilization with low space memory complexity is particularly challenging, and designing space-optimal leader election algorithms remains…

In this paper, we investigate the leader election problem in diameter-two networks. Recently, Chatterjee et al. [DC 2020] studied the leader election in diameter-two networks. They presented a $O(\log n)$-round deterministic {implicit}…

We study the problem of leader election among mobile agents operating in an arbitrary network modeled as an undirected graph. Nodes of the network are unlabeled and all agents are identical. Hence the only way to elect a leader among agents…

Many tasks executed in dynamic distributed systems, such as sensor networks or enterprise environments with bring-your-own-device policy, require central coordination by a leader node. In the past it has been proven that distributed leader…

We study the problem of counting the number of nodes in a slotted-time communication network, under the challenging assumption that nodes do not have identifiers and the network topology changes frequently. That is, for each time slot links…
