We describe a new method for the random sampling of connected networks with a specified degree sequence. We consider both the case of simple graphs and that of loopless multigraphs. The constraints of fixed degrees and of connectedness are…

In this paper, we study a bipartite analogue of the `random graphs evolving by degrees' process. We are given a bipartitioned set of vertices $V$ into two disjoint parts ${L}$ and ${R}$ and possibly unequal positive constants $\alpha$ and…

We study the random planar graph process introduced by Gerke, Schlatter, Steger, and Taraz [The random planar graph process, Random Structures Algorithms 32 (2008), no. 2, 236--261; MR2387559]: Begin with an empty graph on $n$ vertices,…

In 2007 we introduced a general model of sparse random graphs with independence between the edges. The aim of this paper is to present an extension of this model in which the edges are far from independent, and to prove several results…

Consider the triangle-free graph process, which starts from the empty graph on $n$ vertices and a random ordering of the possible ${n \choose 2}$ edges; the edges are added in this ordering provided the graph remains triangle free. We will…

A classical result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi states that every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(1/2+ o(1))n$ contains every $n$-vertex tree with maximum degree $O(n/\log{n})$ as a subgraph, and the bounds on…

A random intersection graph is constructed by assigning independently to each vertex a subset of a given set and drawing an edge between two vertices if and only if their respective subsets intersect. In this paper a model is developed in…

We find an asymptotic enumeration formula for the number of simple $r$-uniform hypergraphs with a given degree sequence, when the number of edges is sufficiently large. The formula is given in terms of the solution of a system of equations.…

We investigate the joint distribution of the vertex degrees in three models of random bipartite graphs. Namely, we can choose each edge with a specified probability, choose a specified number of edges, or specify the vertex degrees in one…

We investigate random processes for generating task-dependency graphs of order $n$ with $m$ edges and a specified number of initial vertices and terminal vertices. In order to do so, we consider two random processes for generating…

In this paper, we prove the first-order convergence law for the uniform attachment random graph with almost all vertices having the same degree. In the considered model, vertices and edges are introduced recursively: at time $m+1$ we start…

We prove that for each $k\ge0$, the probability that a root vertex in a random planar graph has degree $k$ tends to a computable constant $d_k$, so that the expected number of vertices of degree $k$ is asymptotically $d_k n$, and moreover…

Large graphs are sometimes studied through their degree sequences (power law or regular graphs). We study graphs that are uniformly chosen with a given degree sequence. Under mild conditions, it is shown that sequences of such graphs have…

We revisit the classical hard-core model, also known as independent set and dual to vertex cover problem, where one puts particles with a first-neighbor hard-core repulsion on the vertices of a random graph. Although the case of random…

Let $d,n\in \mathbb{N}$ be such that $d=\omega(1)$, and $d\le n^{1-a}$ for some constant $a>0$. Consider a $d$-regular graph $G=(V, E)$ and the random graph process that starts with the empty graph $G(0)$ and at each step $G(i)$ is obtained…

An $n$-tuple $D=(d(1),\dots,d(n))$ is a \emph{feasible degree sequence} if there is a graph on $\{1,\dots,n\}$ such that $i$ has degree $d(i)$. Any such graph will have $m=\sum_{i=1}^n d(i)/2$ edges. Letting $G(D)$ be a graph chosen…

We study the basic preferential attachment process, which generates a sequence of random trees, each obtained from the previous one by introducing a new vertex and joining it to one existing vertex, chosen with probability proportional to…

We study a random graph $G_n$, which combines aspects of geometric random graphs and preferential attachment. The resulting random graphs have power-law degree sequences with finite mean and possibly infinite variance. In particular, the…

In this paper, we revisit the problem of sampling edges in an unknown graph $G = (V, E)$ from a distribution that is (pointwise) almost uniform over $E$. We consider the case where there is some a priori upper bound on the arboriciy of $G$.…

We study preferential attachment mechanisms in random graphs that are parameterized by (i) a constant bias affecting the degree-biased distribution on the vertex set and (ii) the distribution of times at which new vertices are created by…
