Given an inner product space $V$ and a group $G$ of linear isometries, max filtering offers a rich class of convex $G$-invariant maps. In this paper, we identify sufficient conditions under which these maps are locally bilipschitz on…

The symmetric difference of two graphs $G_1,G_2$ on the same set of vertices $V$ is the graph on $V$ whose set of edges are all edges that belong to exactly one of the two graphs $G_1,G_2$. For a fixed graph $H$ call a collection ${\cal G}$…

A graph homomorphism between two graphs is a map from the vertex set of one graph to the vertex set of the other graph, that maps edges to edges. In this note we study the range of a uniformly chosen homomorphism from a graph G to the…

A dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a vertex set $D$ such that every vertex in $V(G) \setminus D$ is adjacent to a vertex in $D$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $D$ is called the domination number of $G$ and is denoted…

Let G=(V,E) be a graph. A set S is independent if no two vertices from S are adjacent. The independence number alpha(G) is the cardinality of a maximum independent set, and mu(G) is the size of a maximum matching. The number…

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ with vertex set $V(G)$. A subset $S\subseteq V(G)$ is an $(a,b)$-dominating set if every vertex $v\in S$ is adjacent to at least $a$ vertices in $S$ and every $v\in V\setminus S$ is adjacent to at…

The Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits stability theorem is one of the most widely used theorems in extremal graph theory. We obtain an Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits type stability theorem in multi-partite graphs. Different from the Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits stability…

The \emph{local boxicity} of a graph $G$, denoted by $lbox(G)$, is the minimum positive integer $l$ such that $G$ can be obtained using the intersection of $k$ (, where $k \geq l$,) interval graphs where each vertex of $G$ appears as a…

Let M be a bounded domain of a Euclidian space with smooth boundary. We relate the Cheeger constant of M and the conductance of a neighborhood graph defined on a random sample from M. By restricting the minimization defining the latter over…

Let $\mathcal G$ be a separable family of graphs. Then for all positive constants $\epsilon$ and $\Delta$ and for every sufficiently large integer $n$, every sequence $G_1,\dotsc,G_t\in\mathcal G$ of graphs of order $n$ and maximum degree…

Let $F_G(P)$ be a functional defined on the set of all the probability distributions on the vertex set of a graph $G$. We say that $G$ is \emph{symmetric with respect to $F_G(P)$} if the uniform distribution on $V(G)$ maximizes $F_G(P)$.…

A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a dominating set if every vertex not in $S$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. If, in addition, $S$ is an independent set, then $S$ is an independent dominating set. The independent domination number…

Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, a token addition and removal ({\sf TAR} for short) reconfiguration sequence between two dominating sets $D_{\sf s}$ and $D_{\sf t}$ of size at most $k$ is a sequence $S= \langle D_0 = D_{\sf s}, D_1…

Let F(G) be a fixed linear combination of the k extremal eigenvalues of a graph G and of its complement. The problem of finding max{F(G):v(G)=n} generalizes a number of problems raised previously in the literature. We show that the limit…

We show that if $G$ is an amenable group and $A\subseteq G$ has positive upper Banach density, then there is an identity neighborhood $B$ in the Bohr topology on $G$ that is almost contained in $AA^{-1}$ in the sense that $B\backslash…

We show that given a SM instance G as input we can find a largest collection of pairwise edge-disjoint stable matchings of G in time linear in the input size. This extends two classical results: 1. The Gale-Shapley algorithm, which can find…

A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is independent (or stable) if no two vertices from $S$ are adjacent, and by $\mathrm{Ind}(G)$ we mean the set of all independent sets of $G$. A set $A\in\mathrm{Ind}(G)$ is critical (and we write $A\in CritIndep(G)$)…

Alspach [{\sl Bull. Inst. Combin. Appl.}~{\bf 52} (2008), 7--20] defined the maximal matching sequencibility of a graph $G$, denoted~$ms(G)$, to be the largest integer $s$ for which there is an ordering of the edges of $G$ such that every…

This work will appear as a chapter in a forthcoming volume titled `Topics in Probabilistic Graph Theory'. For a given graph $G$, each partition of the vertices has a modularity score, with higher values indicating that the partition better…

We connect the mixing behaviour of random walks over a graph to the power of the local-consistency algorithm for the solution of the corresponding constraint satisfaction problem (CSP). We extend this connection to arbitrary CSPs and their…
