Quasirandom Rumor Spreading on Expanders

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Randomized rumor spreading is an efficient way to distribute information in networks. Recently, a quasirandom version of this protocol has been proposed. It was proven that it works equally well or even better in many settings. In this work, we exhibit a natural expansion property for networks, which ensures that quasirandom rumor spreading informs all nodes of the network in logarithmic time with high probability. This expansion property is satisfied, among others, by many expander graphs, random regular graphs, and Erdo{combining double acute accent}s-Rényi random graphs.
