Title
Symmetry Breaking in Anonymous Networks: Characterizations
Abstract
We characterize exactly the cases in which it is possible to elect a leader in an anonymous network of processors by a deterministic algorithm, and we show that for every network there is a weak election algorithm (i.e., if election is impossible all processors detect this fact in a distributed way).
