Distributed Colouring with 4/3 chi Colours for Hyperbolic Random Graphs

Kostas Lakis, Johannes Lengler, Adeline Pittet

We study distributed vertex colouring on Hyperbolic Random Graphs (HRGs), a geometric random graph model capturing key structural features of real-world networks. This provides a n…

Geometric Routing in Geometric Inhomogeneous Random Graphs

Yu-Cheng Chiu, Marc Kaufmann, Kostas Lakis +1

We present the first rigorous analysis of decentralized geometric routing in Geometric Inhomogeneous Random Graphs (GIRGs), a weight-agnostic variant of the greedy routing protocol…

Exact Matching and Top-k Perfect Matching Parameterized by Neighborhood Diversity or Bandwidth

Nicolas El Maalouly, Kostas Lakis

The Exact Matching (EM) problem asks whether there exists a perfect matching which uses a prescribed number of red edges in a red/blue edge-colored graph. While there exists a rand…

The Diameter of (Threshold) Geometric Inhomogeneous Random Graphs

Zylan Benjert, Kostas Lakis, Johannes Lengler +1

We prove that the diameter of threshold (zero temperature) Geometric Inhomogeneous Random Graphs (GIRG) is . This has strong implications for the runtime of many distri…

Rumour Spreading Depends on the Latent Geometry and Degree Distribution in Social Network Models

Marc Kaufmann, Kostas Lakis, Johannes Lengler +3

We study push-pull rumour spreading in ultra-small-world models for social networks where the degrees follow a power-law distribution. In a non-geometric setting, Fountoulakis, Pan…
