Fig 6. Properties of the broadcast.

In a, we display the distributions of the size and depth for broadcast diffusion trees and broadcast spreading respectively. The proportion of broadcast links in diffusion processes with a certain depth is shown in b. The relation between the size of broadcast spreading and broadcast diffusion trees is displayed in c. Error bars indicate 10% and 90% percentiles. The inset presents the diminishing ratio when mapping the diffusion trees to broadcast spreading. We plot nodes’ average branching number versus their depth in diffusion in d.
