We establish a central limit theorem for the sum of $\epsilon$-independent random variables, extending both the classical and free probability setting. Central to our approach is the use of graphon limits to characterize the limiting…
Building upon the theory of graph limits and the Aldous-Hoover representation and inspired by Panchenko's work on asymptotic Gibbs measures (Annals of Probability 2013), we construct continuous embeddings of discrete probability…
We study the locality of critical percolation on finite graphs: let $G_n$ be a sequence of finite graphs, converging locally weakly to a (random, rooted) infinite graph $G$. Consider Bernoulli edge percolation: does the critical probability…
In 2013, Bollob\'as, Mitsche, and Pralat at gave upper and lower bounds for the likely metric dimension of random Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $G(n,p)$ for a large range of expected degrees $d=pn$. However, their results only apply when $d \ge…
In this paper we study the diameter of the random graph $G(n,p)$, i.e., the the largest finite distance between two vertices, for a wide range of functions $p=p(n)$. For $p=\la/n$ with $\la>1$ constant, we give a simple proof of an…
We study intersection properties of two or more independent tree-like random graphs. Our setting encompasses critical, possibly long range, Bernoulli percolation clusters, incipient infinite clusters, as well as critical branching random…
R\'emy's algorithm is a Markov chain that iteratively generates a sequence of random trees in such a way that the $n^{\mathrm{th}}$ tree is uniformly distributed over the set of rooted, planar, binary trees with $2n+1$ vertices. We obtain a…
This article presents a method for finding the critical probability $p_c$ for the Bernoulli bond percolation on graphs with the so-called tree-like structure. Such a graph can be decomposed into a tree of pieces, each of which has finitely…
As we add rigid bars between points in the plane, at what point is there a giant (linear-sized) rigid component, which can be rotated and translated, but which has no internal flexibility? If the points are generic, this depends only on the…
We consider a stochastic directed graph on the integers whereby a directed edge between $i$ and a larger integer $j$ exists with probability $p_{j-i}$ depending solely on the distance between the two integers. Under broad conditions, we…
Consider the uniform random graph $G(n,M)$ with $n$ vertices and $M$ edges. Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi (1960) conjectured that the limit $$ \lim_{n \to \infty} \Pr\{G(n,\textstyle{n\over 2}) is planar}} $$ exists and is a constant strictly…
A random geometric graph $G(\mathcal{X}_n, r_n)$ is formed by taking a binomial process $\mathcal{X}_n$ as the set of vertices and joining any two distinct points with an edge if they lie within distance $r_n$ of each other. We investigate…
We describe the component sizes in critical independent p-bond percolation on a random d-regular graph on n vertices, where d \geq 3 is fixed and n grows. We prove mean-field behavior around the critical probability p_c=1/(d-1). In…
In this article we introduce a simple tool to derive polynomial upper bounds for the probability of observing unusually large maximal components in some models of random graphs when considered at criticality. Specifically, we apply our…
The planar rigidity problem asks, given a set of m pairwise distances among a set P of n unknown points, whether it is possible to reconstruct P, up to a finite set of possibilities (modulo rigid motions of the plane). The celebrated…
In this paper, we investigate the exact asymptotic behavior of the connectivity probability in the Erdos-Renyi graph G(n,p), under different asymptotic assumptions on the edge probability p=p(n). We propose a novel approach based on the…
In the random graph $G(n,p)$ with $pn$ bounded, the degrees of the vertices are almost i.i.d Poisson random variables with mean $\gl:= p(n-1)$. Motivated by this fact, we introduce the Poisson cloning model $G_{PC} (n,p)$ for random graphs…
What does an Erdos-Renyi graph look like when a rare event happens? This paper answers this question when p is fixed and n tends to infinity by establishing a large deviation principle under an appropriate topology. The formulation and…
We define a growing model of random graphs. Given a sequence of nonnegative integers $\{d_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$ with the property that $d_i\leq i$, we construct a random graph on countably infinitely many vertices $v_0,v_1\ldots$ by the…
Motivated by limits of critical inhomogeneous random graphs, we construct a family of sequences of measured metric spaces that we call continuous multiplicative graphs, that are expected to be the universal limit of graphs related to the…
