Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Require regularity and sufficiently strong expansion | Strong attacker on a d-regular graph · d-regular graph | attacker win probability: cannot win for any number of rounds if σ≤ ε√(α (1-α)) | Helped |
| Bound maximum degree | Moderate attacker · graph, t rounds | attacker win probability: Δ≤ (Cn/log (1/μ))^{1/(2t)}; cannot win w.p. at least 1-μ | Helped |
| Bound maximum degree in the one-round setting | Moderate attacker · graph, one round | attacker win probability: Δ≤ C''n/log^2 (1/μ); cannot win w.p. at least 1-μ | Helped |
| Bound maximum degree or require at least half the nodes to have sufficiently large degree | Weak attacker · graph, any t | attacker win probability: Δ≤ Cn/((log n)^{C′}log (4/μ)) or half of the nodes ... degree at least d*_1; cannot win w.p. at least 1-μ | Helped |
| Select seeds independently with probability α | Opinion diffusion process · connected graph | stabilization time: Ω(log_Δ log n^{1/α}) a.a.s.; 𝒪((1/αδ)log n) a.a.s. | Mixed |
