We consider a random geometric graph obtained by placing a Poisson point process of intensity 1 in the d-dimensional torus of side length n^(1/d) and connecting two points by an edge if their distance is at most r. We consider the case of…
Random graphs have played an instrumental role in modelling real-world networks arising from the internet topology, social networks, or even protein-interaction networks within cells. Percolation, on the other hand, has been the fundamental…
In this paper we introduce and study a higher-dimensional analogue of the giant component in continuum percolation. Using the language of algebraic topology, we define the notion of giant k-dimensional cycles (with 0-cycles being connected…
Let d \geq d_0 be a sufficiently large constant. A (n,d,c \sqrt{d}) graph G is a d-regular graph over n vertices whose second largest (in absolute value) eigenvalue is at most c \sqrt{d}. For any 0 < p < 1, G_p is the graph induced by…
We consider site (vertex) percolation on $d$-regular graphs, for both constant-degree and growing-degree cases. We give sufficient, and relatively tight, conditions for the emergence of the ``Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi component phenomenon" in the…
We analyse the scaling limit of the sizes of the largest components of the Random Intersection Graph $G(n,m,p)$ close to the critical point $p=\frac{1}{\sqrt{nm}}$, when the numbers $n$ of individuals and $m$ of communities have different…
Let $G=G(d)$ be a random graph with a given degree sequence $d$, such as a random $r$-regular graph where $r\ge 3$ is fixed and $n=|G|\to\infty$. We study the percolation phase transition on such graphs $G$, i.e., the emergence as $p$…
Consider a uniformly random regular graph of a fixed degree $d\ge3$, with $n$ vertices. Suppose that each edge is open (closed), with probability $p(q=1-p)$, respectively. In 2004 Alon, Benjamini and Stacey proved that $p^*=(d-1)^{-1}$ is…
We present a comprehensive and versatile theoretical framework to study site and bond percolation on clustered and correlated random graphs. Our contribution can be summarized in three main points. (i) We introduce a set of iterative…
We study Bernoulli bond percolation on nonunimodular quasi-transitive graphs, and more generally graphs whose automorphism group has a nonunimodular quasi-transitive subgroup. We prove that percolation on any such graph has a non-empty…
We consider a model for random hypergraphs with identifiability, an analogue of connectedness. This model has a phase transition in the proportion of identifiable vertices when the underlying random graph becomes critical. The phase…
We consider first-passage percolation on the class of "high-dimensional" graphs that can be written as an iterated Cartesian product $G\square G \square \dots \square G$ of some base graph $G$ as the number of factors tends to infinity. We…
We prove Schramm's locality conjecture for Bernoulli bond percolation on transitive graphs: If $(G_n)_{n\geq 1}$ is a sequence of infinite vertex-transitive graphs converging locally to a vertex-transitive graph $G$ and $p_c(G_n) \neq 1$…
In this article, we study the critical percolation threshold $p_c$ for $d$-regular graphs. It is well-known that $p_c \geq \frac{1}{d-1}$ for such graphs, with equality holding for the $d$-regular tree. We prove that among all…
A sequence $D = \{d_1,...d_n\}$ is a feasible degree sequence if there is a graph on $\{1,...,n\}$ such that $i$ has degree $d_i$. For such a sequence, $G(D)$ is a graph chosen uniformly at random from those with the given degree sequence.…
Given an infinite connected graph $G$, a way to randomly perturb its metric is to assign random i.i.d. lengths to the edges of the graph, a process called first-passage percolation. Assume that the graph is infinite and of bounded degree.…
We study the component structure of the random graph $G=G_{n,m,d}$. Here $d=O(1)$ and $G$ is sampled uniformly from ${\mathcal G}_{n,m,d}$, the set of graphs with vertex set $[n]$, $m$ edges and maximum degree at most $d$. If $m=\mu n/2$…
We consider the zero-average Gaussian free field on a certain class of finite $d$-regular graphs for fixed $d\ge 3$. This class includes $d$-regular expanders of large girth and typical realisations of random $d$-regular graphs. We show…
We consider bond percolation on the $d$-dimensional binary hypercube with $p=c/d$ for fixed $c>1$. We prove that the typical diameter of the giant component $L_1$ is of order $\Theta(d)$, and the typical mixing time of the lazy random walk…
We identify the scaling limits for the sizes of the largest components at criticality for inhomogeneous random graphs when the degree exponent $\tau$ satisfies $\tau>4$. We see that the sizes of the (rescaled) components converge to the…
