Low Randomness Rumor Spreading via Hashing
We consider the classical rumor spreading problem, where a piece of information must be disseminated from a single node to all n nodes of a given network. We devise two simple pus...

Maximum Weight Independent Sets and Matchings in Sparse Random Graphs. Exact Results Using the Local Weak Convergence Method
ABSTRACT: Let G(n, c/n) and Gr(n) be an n-node sparse random graph and a sparse random rregular graph, respectively, and let I(n, r) and I(n, c) be the sizes of the largest indepen...
