In this paper, we derive nearly tight probabilistic norm bounds for a class of random matrices we call graph matrices. While the classical case of symmetric matrices with independent random entries (Wigner's matrices) is a special case, in…

In the past two decades, significant advances have been made in understanding the structural and functional properties of biological networks, via graph-theoretic analysis. In general, most graph-theoretic studies are conducted in the…

Graphons are symmetric measurable functions that arise from a sequence of graphs. A graphon variety is the a set of all graphons defined by a condition of the form $t(g, W) = 0$ for a fixed quantum graph $g$, where $t(.,.)$ is the…

When two graphs have a correlated Bernoulli distribution, we prove that the alignment strength of their natural bijection strongly converges to a novel measure of graph correlation $\rho_T$ that neatly combines intergraph with intragraph…

We introduce the tree distance, a new distance measure on graphs. The tree distance can be computed in polynomial time with standard methods from convex optimization. It is based on the notion of fractional isomorphism, a characterization…

We study the random graph G_{n,\lambda/n} conditioned on the event that all vertex degrees lie in some given subset S of the non-negative integers. Subject to a certain hypothesis on S, the empirical distribution of the vertex degrees is…

In this paper, we deal with a notion of Banach space-valued mappings defined on a set consisting of finite graphs with uniformly bounded vertex degree. These functions will be endowed with certain boundedness and additivity criteria. We…

We obtain the scaling limits of random graphs drawn uniformly in three families of intersection graphs: permutation graphs, circle graphs, and unit interval graphs. The two first families typically generate dense graphs, in these cases we…

Greb\'ik and Rocha [Fractional Isomorphism of Graphons, Combinatorica 42, pp 365-404 (2022)] extended the well studied notion of fractional isomorphism of graphs to graphons. We prove that fractionally isomorphic graphons can be…

We establish tightness of graph-based stochastic processes in the space $D[0+\epsilon,1-\epsilon]$ with $\epsilon >0$ that allows for discontinuities of the first kind. The graph-based stochastic processes are based on statistics…

We study semantic models of probabilistic programming languages over graphs, and establish a connection to graphons from graph theory and combinatorics. We show that every well-behaved equational theory for our graph probabilistic…

Borgs, Chayes, Cohn and Holden (2016+) recently extended the definition of graphons from probability spaces to arbitrary $\sigma$-finite measure spaces, in order to study limits of sparse graphs. They also extended the definition of the cut…

We show that asymptotic equivalence, in a strong form, holds between two random graph models with slightly differing edge probabilities under substantially weaker conditions than what might naively be expected. One application is a simple…

We prove that an arbitrary compact metrizable group can be realized as the automorphism group of a graphing; this is a continuous analogue to Frucht's theorem recovering arbitrary finite groups are automorphism groups of finite graphs. The…

This paper defines, for each graph $G$, a flag vector $fG$. The flag vectors of the graphs on $n$ vertices span a space whose dimension is $p(n)$, the number of partitions on $n$. The analogy with convex polytopes indicates that the linear…

Can graph neural networks generalize to graphs that are different from the graphs they were trained on, e.g., in size? In this work, we study this question from a theoretical perspective. While recent work established such transferability…
