Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We study the relation between the rate at which rumors spread throughout a graph and the vertex expansion of the graph. We consider the standard rumor spreading protocol where every node chooses a random neighbor in each round and the two nodes exchange the rumors they know. For any n-node graph with vertex expansion α, we show that this protocol spreads a rumor from a single node to all other nodes in O(α −1 log 2 n √ log n) rounds with high probability. Further, we construct graphs for which Ω(α −1 log 2 n) rounds are needed. Our results complement a long series of works that relate rumor spreading to edgebased notions of expansion, resolving one of the most natural questions on the connection between rumor spreading and expansion. 1

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
