These are considered without compromising the privacy properties of the Nomos Mix. The first version can be seen in this [document](https://www.notion.so/Nomos-Mix-Peer-to-Peer-Mix-Network-over-Gossip-Channel-11e9c70a656d4ff1858bc46a715f4c59?pvs=4#dee3a11560834b689f41447c678ad2e6) (WIP). +- Considered the latency of a broadcast in the high connectivity regime of communication networks. In this regime, a node is connected to a fraction of all nodes in the network. Assumed that a message delay is governed by a Geometric distribution with parameter q, i.e., a message is removed from the out-queue with probability q, and a constant delay in communication links. For this model of delays, the latency of broadcast, computed numerically, converges to 2 units of time as the number of nodes, N, in the network grows. However, the distribution of delays can be very broad for a small q (and small N), suggesting that in a high connectivity regime to have q≥12q \geq \frac{1}{2}q≥21​ is more desirable.
