Naming on a Directed Graph

چکیده
We address how the structure of a social communication system affects language coordination. The naming game is an abstraction of lexical acquisition dynamics, in which N agents try to find an agreement on the names to give to objects. Most results on naming games are specific to certain communication network topologies. We present two important results that are general to any graph topology: the first proves that under certain topologies the system always converges to a name-object agreement; the second proves that if these conditions are not met the system may end up in a state in which sub-networks with different competing object-name associations coexist.

Directed prime graph of non-commutative ring
Prime graph of a ring R is a graph whose vertex set is the whole set R any any two elements $x$ and $y$ of $R$ are adjacent in the graph if and only if $xRy = 0$ or $yRx = 0$. Prime graph of a ring is denoted by $PG(R)$. Directed prime graphs for non-commutative rings and connectivity in the graph are studied in the present paper. The diameter and girth of this graph are also studied in the pa...
متن کاملThe topological ordering of covering nodes
The topological ordering algorithm sorts nodes of a directed graph such that the order of the tail of each arc is lower than the order of its head. In this paper, we introduce the notion of covering between nodes of a directed graph. Then, we apply the topological orderingalgorithm on graphs containing the covering nodes. We show that there exists a cut set withforward arcs in these...

Naming the regions and demarcating the boundaries of a land are not merely a neutral label to be pinned to a geographical region so much as a logic emanated from the research approaches to that region. That is, names of different regions should be regarded as “concepts” rather than “names.” Reciprocally, prevalent approaches in regional studies influence upon geographical demarcation and expans...
متن کاملDeciding Graph non-Hamiltonicity via a Closure Algorithm
We present a matching and LP based heuristic algorithm that decides graph non-Hamiltonicity. Each of the n! Hamilton cycles in a complete directed graph on n + 1 vertices corresponds with each of the n! n-permutation matrices P, such that pu,i = 1 if and only if the ith arc in a cycle enters vertex u, starting and ending at vertex n + 1. A graph instance (G) is initially coded as exclusion set ...
متن کاملGraph Matrix Completion in Presence of Outliers
Matrix completion problem has gathered a lot of attention in recent years. In the matrix completion problem, the goal is to recover a low-rank matrix from a subset of its entries. The graph matrix completion was introduced based on the fact that the relation between rows (or columns) of a matrix can be modeled as a graph structure. The graph matrix completion problem is formulated by adding the...
