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 consider the random directed graph $\vec{G}(n,p)$ with vertex set $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ in which each of the $n(n-1)$ possible directed edges is present independently with probability $p$. We are interested in the strongly connected…

We analyze a minimal model of a growing network. At each time step, a new vertex is added; then, with probability delta, two vertices are chosen uniformly at random and joined by an undirected edge. This process is repeated for t time…

We show that by restricting the degrees of the vertices of a graph to an arbitrary set \( \Delta \), the threshold point $ \alpha(\Delta) $ of the phase transition for a random graph with $ n $ vertices and $ m = \alpha(\Delta) n $ edges…

For a fixed degree sequence $\mathcal{D}=(d_1,...,d_n)$, let $G(\mathcal{D})$ be a uniformly chosen (simple) graph on $\{1,...,n\}$ where the vertex $i$ has degree $d_i$. In this paper we determine whether $G(\mathcal{D})$ has a giant…

We describe the critical window for percolation in the universality class of sparse growing random graphs. In our models, vertices arrive sequentially and connect independently to each earlier vertex $v$ with probability proportional to a…

The $k$-core of a graph is the largest subgraph of minimum degree at least $k$. We show that for $k$ sufficiently large, the $(k + 2)$-core of a random graph $\G(n,p)$ asymptotically almost surely has a spanning $k$-regular subgraph. Thus…

The phase transition in the size of the giant component in random graphs is one of the most well-studied phenomena in random graph theory. For hypergraphs, there are many possible generalisations of the notion of a component, and for all…

We consider the component structure of the random digraph $D(n,p)$ inside the critical window $p = n^{-1} + \lambda n^{-4/3}$.We show that the largest component $\mathcal{C}_1$ has size of order $n^{1/3}$ in this range. In particular we…

We identify the scaling limit of random intersection graphs inside their critical windows. The limit graphs vary according to the clustering regimes, and coincide with the continuum Erdos--Renyi graph in two out of the three regimes. Our…

We consider random graphs on the set of $N^2$ vertices placed on the discrete $2$-dimensional torus. The edges between pairs of vertices are independent, and their probabilities decay with the distance $\rho$ between these vertices as…

We show that the size-Ramsey number of any cubic graph with $n$ vertices is $O(n^{8/5})$, improving a bound of $n^{5/3 + o(1)}$ due to Kohayakawa, R\"{o}dl, Schacht, and Szemer\'{e}di. The heart of the argument is to show that there is a…

Given b>0, integers n, m=bn and a probability measure Q on {0, 1,..., m}, consider the random intersection graph on the vertex set [n]={1, ..., n}, where i and j are declared adjacent whenever S(i) and S(j) intersect. Here S(1), ..., S(n)…

For integers $g,m \geq 0$ and $n>0$, let $S_{g}(n,m)$ denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all graphs on $\{1,2, \ldots, n\}$ with exactly $m=m(n)$ edges and with genus at most $g$. We use counting arguments to…

We study the number of chords and the number of crossings in the largest component of a random chord diagram when the chords are sparsely crossing. This is equivalent to studying the number of vertices and the number of edges in the largest…
