I have not explicitly looked into this, but in general, the dynamics of GNNs are really interesting and there are many different lenses in which one can study the behavior of GNNs and find interesting takeaways. - Explicit Message Passing: https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.11097 - Algorithmic Reasoning: https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.15544 - Diffusion: https://proceedings.mlr.press/v139/chamberlain21a.html - Spectral: https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.02863 - Sparsity: https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.15335 - Training Tricks: https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.10521 - Interaction Networks / Physical…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2111.14522/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

Also, at first skim, I&amp;#x27;m surprised there&amp;#x27;s no discussion on oversmoothing/oversquashing in this paper. It seems like what they&amp;#x27;re calling &amp;quot;overfitting&amp;quot; on the graph structure could be interpreted as the GNN&amp;#x27;s node representations saturating/starving because of poor graph topology.
