We will describe network processes in which, at each step, each node communicates with its neighbors, or a random subset of neighbors, and updates its state according to the outcome of these communications. We will…

Given a complete Riemannian manifold that looks enough like Euclidean space at infinity, physicists have defined a quantity called the “mass” that measures the asymptotic deviation of the geometry from the Euclidean model. After first…

We review some probabilistic interpretations of symmetric and skew-symmetric Fock spaces related to Markov processes. Most results will be presented in the simple context of finite graphs.

Giving meaning to programs through axiomatic, denotational, and operational semantics is one of the main goals of theoretical computer science since its early days. Traditionally, program semantics is built around notions of program equivalence and…
