Abstract--In this paper, we investigate the use of messagepassing algorithms for the problem of finding the max-weight independent set (MWIS) in a graph. First, we study the perfor...
Abstract In a line of recent development, probabilistic constructions of universal, homogeneous objects have been provided in various categories of ordered structures, such as caus...
Jim Propp’s P-machine, also known as the ‘rotor router model’ is a simple deterministic process that simulates a random walk on a graph. Instead of distributing chips to ran...
