Randomized Rumor Spreading in Dynamic Graphs [PDF]
, 2014 We consider the well-studied rumor spreading model in which nodes contact a random neighbor in each round in order to push or pull the rumor. Unlike most previous works which focus on static topologies, we look at a dynamic graph model where an adversary is allowed to rewire the connections between vertices before each round, giving rise to a sequence ...

, 2019 We study the problem of randomized information dissemination in networks. We compare the now standard PUSH-PULL protocol, with agent-based alternatives where information is disseminated by a collection of agents performing independent random walks. In the VISIT-EXCHANGE protocol, both nodes and agents store information, and each time an agent visits a ...

Parameter Hierarchies and Language Contact: The Present Perfect in Ecuadorian Spanish1
Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.Abstract This article explores the hypothesis that the ‘fine‐grained’ grammatical differences that adult grammars under contact are said to be sensitive to (e.g., Hicks et al. 2023) amount to micro/nanoparametric distinctions, in the sense of Roberts (2019).
