Abstract

We study expansion and flooding in evolving graphs, when nodes and edges are continuously created and removed. We consider a model with Poisson node inter-arrival and exponential node survival times. Upon joining the network, a node connects to (Figure presented.) random nodes, while an edge disappears whenever one of its endpoints leaves the network. For this model, we show that, although the graph has (Figure presented.) isolated nodes with large, constant probability, flooding still informs a fraction (Figure presented.) of the nodes in time (Figure presented.). Moreover, at any given time, the graph exhibits a “large-set expansion” property. We further consider a model in which each edge leaving the network is replaced by a fresh, random one. In this second case, we prove that flooding informs all nodes in time (Figure presented.), with high probability. Moreover, the graph is a vertex expander with high probability.
