Quick references I want to keep track of
From Snowflake to Avalanche - Emin Gün Sirer
High level presentation. It doesn't go deep in the probabilities and other maths quirks but you get the gist of the consensus.
Deep Dive Into A New, High Throughput Consensus Algorithm For Permissioned Blockchains
More technical article here on Steem.

Metadata blog on distributed systems broadly defined.
Another one :-)

Snowflake to Avalanche: A Novel Metastable Consensus Protocol Family for Cryptocurrencies
Finally the article by the pseudonymous Team Rocket:

I need to spend some time studying that. I also should compare it with blockchain-style consensus and more classical consensus.
I guess if I have questions I can try to reach out to their protonmail: [email protected]
