Reconstruction for Models on Random Graphs
Consider a collection of random variables attached to the vertices of a graph. The reconstruction problem requires to estimate one of them given ‘far away’ observations. Sever...

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...

Local Dynamics in Bargaining Networks via Random-Turn Games
Abstract. We present a new technique for analyzing the rate of convergence of local dynamics in bargaining networks. The technique reduces balancing in a bargaining network to opti...

Randomly Coloring Constant Degree Graphs
We study a simple Markov chain, known as the Glauber dynamics, for generating a random k-coloring of a n-vertex graph with maximum degree . We prove that, for every > 0, the d...

Convergence to Equilibrium in Local Interaction Games
— We study a simple game theoretic model for the spread of an innovation in a network. The diffusion of the innovation is modeled as the dynamics of a coordination game in which ...
