Improving Efficiency in Near-State and State-Optimal Self-Stabilising Leader Election Population Protocols

Leszek Gąsieniec, Tytus Grodzicki, Grzegorz Stachowiak

We investigate leader election problem via ranking within self-stabilising population protocols. In this scenario, the agent's state space comprises rank states and extra s…

Simple approximation algorithms for Polyamorous Scheduling

Yuriy Biktairov, Leszek Gąsieniec, Wanchote Po Jiamjitrak +3

In Polyamorous Scheduling, we are given an edge-weighted graph and must find a periodic schedule of matchings in this graph which minimizes the maximal weighted waiting time betwee…

Polyamorous Scheduling

Leszek Gąsieniec, Benjamin Smith, Sebastian Wild

Finding schedules for pairwise meetings between the members of a complex social group without creating interpersonal conflict is challenging, especially when different relationship…

Selective Population Protocols

Adam Gańczorz, Leszek Gąsieniec, Tomasz Jurdziński +2

The model of population protocols provides a universal platform to study distributed processes driven by pairwise interactions of anonymous agents. While population protocols prese…

Perpetual maintenance of machines with different urgency requirements

Leszek Gąsieniec, Tomasz Jurdziński, Ralf Klasing +4

A garden is populated by bamboos with the respective daily growth rates . It is assumed that the initial heights of…

New Clocks, Optimal Line Formation and Self-Replication Population Protocols

Leszek Gasieniec, Paul Spirakis, Grzegorz Stachowiak

In this paper we consider a variant of population protocols in which agents are allowed to be connected by edges, known as the constructors model. During an interaction between two…

A time and space optimal stable population protocol solving exact majority

David Doty, Mahsa Eftekhari, Leszek Gąsieniec +3

We study population protocols, a model of distributed computing appropriate for modeling well-mixed chemical reaction networks and other physical systems where agents exchange info…

Efficient Assignment of Identities in Anonymous Populations

Leszek Gasieniec, Jesper Jansson, Christos Levcopoulos +1

We consider the fundamental problem of assigning distinct labels to agents in the probabilistic model of population protocols. Our protocols operate under the assumption that the s…

Information Gathering in Ad-Hoc Radio Networks

Marek Chrobak, Kevin Costello, Leszek Gasieniec

In the ad-hoc radio network model, nodes communicate with their neighbors via radio signals, without knowing the topology of the graph. We study the information gathering problem,…

Patrolling on Dynamic Ring Networks

Shantanu Das, Giuseppe Antonio Di Luna, Leszek A. Gasieniec

We study the problem of patrolling the nodes of a network collaboratively by a team of mobile agents, such that each node of the network is visited by at least one agent once in ev…

Almost logarithmic-time space optimal leader election in population protocols

Leszek Gąsieniec, Grzegorz Stachowiak, Przemysław Uznański

The model of population protocols refers to a large collection of simple indistinguishable entities, frequently called {\em agents}. The agents communicate and perform computation…

Deterministic Computations on a PRAM with Static Processor and Memory Faults

Bogdan S. Chlebus, Leszek Gasieniec, Andrzej Pelc

We consider Parallel Random Access Machine (PRAM) which has some processors and memory cells faulty. The faults considered are static, i.e., once the machine starts to operate, the…

Patrolling a Path Connecting a Set of Points with Unbalanced Frequencies of Visits

Huda Chuangpishit, Jurek Czyzowicz, Leszek Gasieniec +3

Patrolling consists of scheduling perpetual movements of a collection of mobile robots, so that each point of the environment is regularly revisited by any robot in the collection.…

Colored Point-set Embeddings of Acyclic Graphs

Emilio Di Giacomo, Leszek Gasieniec, Giuseppe Liotta +1

We show that any planar drawing of a forest of three stars whose vertices are constrained to be at fixed vertex locations may require edges each having $Ω(n^\fra…

Fast Space Optimal Leader Election in Population Protocols

Leszek Gasieniec, Grzegorz Stachowiak

The model of population protocols refers to the growing in popularity theoretical framework suitable for studying pairwise interactions within a large collection of simple indistin…

Temporal flows in Temporal networks

Eleni C. Akrida, Jurek Czyzowicz, Leszek Gasieniec +2

We introduce temporal flows on temporal networks, i.e., networks the links of which exist only at certain moments of time. Such networks are ephemeral in the sense that no link exi…

Efficiently Correcting Matrix Products

Leszek Gasieniec, Christos Levcopoulos, Andrzej Lingas +2

We study the problem of efficiently correcting an erroneous product of two matrices over a ring. Among other things, we provide a randomized algorithm for correcting a…

Deterministic Symmetry Breaking in Ring Networks

Leszek Gasieniec, Tomasz Jurdzinski, Russell Martin +1

We study a distributed coordination mechanism for uniform agents located on a circle. The agents perform their actions in synchronised rounds. At the beginning of each round an age…

On Convergence and Threshold Properties of Discrete Lotka-Volterra Population Protocols

Jurek Czyzowicz, Leszek Gasieniec, Adrian Kosowski +3

In this work we focus on a natural class of population protocols whose dynamics are modelled by the discrete version of Lotka-Volterra equations. In such protocols, when an agent $…
