Consider the Cayley graph of the cyclic group of prime order q with k uniformly chosen generators. For fixed k, we prove that the diameter of said graph is asymptotically (in q) of order q^(1/k). The same also holds when the generating set…

The diameter of a graph measures the maximal distance between any pair of vertices. The diameters of many small-world networks, as well as a variety of other random graph models, grow logarithmically in the number of nodes. In contrast, the…
It is well known that many random graphs with infinite variance degrees are ultrasmall. More precisely, for configuration models and preferential attachment models where the proportion of vertices of degree at least $k$ is approximately…
We consider the degree-diameter problem for Cayley graphs of dihedral groups. We find upper and lower bounds on the maximum number of vertices of such a graph with diameter 2 and degree $d$. We completely determine the asymptotic behaviour…
In this work we prove general bounds for the diameter of random graphs generated by a preferential attachment model whose parameter is a function $f:\mathbb{N}\to[0,1]$ that drives the asymptotic proportion between the numbers of vertices…
The degree-diameter problem seeks to find the largest possible number of vertices in a graph having given diameter and given maximum degree. Very often the problem is studied for restricted families of graph such as vertex-transitive or…
Given a group G, the model \mathcal{G}(G,p) denotes the probability space of all Cayley graphs of G where each element of the generating set is chosen independently at random with probability p. Given a family of groups (G_k) and a c \in…
The largest order $n(d,k)$ of a graph of maximum degree $d$ and diameter $k$ cannot exceed the Moore bound, which has the form $M(d,k)=d^k - O(d^{k-1})$ for $d\to\infty$ and any fixed $k$. Known results in finite geometries on generalised…
We show that for integers k > 1 and n > 2, the diameter of the Cayley graph of SL_n(Z/kZ) associated to a standard two-element generating set, is at most a constant times n^2 ln k. This answers a question of A. Lubotzky concerning SL_n(F_p)…
In this paper we derive results concerning the connected components and the diameter of random graphs with an arbitrary i.i.d. degree sequence. We study these properties primarily, but not exclusively, when the tail of the degree…
We prove that random d-regular Cayley graphs of the symmetric group asymptotically almost surely have girth at least (log_{d-1}|G|)^{1/2}/2 and that random d-regular Cayley graphs of simple algebraic groups over F_q asymptotically almost…
We show that the diameter of the directed configuration model with $n$ vertices rescaled by $\log n$ converges in probability to a constant. Our assumptions are the convergence of the in- and out-degree of a uniform random vertex in…
Consider the random Cayley graph of a finite Abelian group $G$ with respect to $k$ generators chosen uniformly at random, with $1 \ll \log k \ll \log |G|$. Draw a vertex $U \sim \operatorname{Unif}(G)$. We show that the graph distance…
We discuss asymptotics for large random planar maps under the assumption that the distribution of the degree of a typical face is in the domain of attraction of a stable distribution with index $\alpha\in(1,2)$. When the number $n$ of…
In this paper it is proved that there are constants 0< c_2< c_1 such that an asymptotic formula can be given for the the number of (labeled) n-vertex graphs of diameter d whenever n tends to infinity and 2 < d < n - c_1 (log n). A typical…
Consider the Cayley graph of $S_n$ generated by a random pair of elements $x,y$. Conjecturally, the girth of this graph is $\Omega(n \log n)$ with probability tending to $1$ as $n\to\infty$. We show that it is at least $\Omega(n^{1/3})$.
We present families of large undirected and directed Cayley graphs whose construction is related to butterfly networks. One approach yields, for every large $k$ and for values of $d$ taken from a large interval, the largest known Cayley…
In this paper we study asymptotic behavior of regular subsets in a free group F of finite rank, compare their sizes at infinity, and develop techniques to compute the probabilities of sets relative to distributions on F that come naturally…
