It has been conjectured that for every claw-free graph $G$ the choice number of $G$ is equal to its chromatic number. We focus on the special case of this conjecture where $G$ is perfect. Claw-free perfect graphs can be decomposed via…
The capacity (or maximum flow) of an unicast network is known to be equal to the minimum s-t cut capacity due to the max-flow min-cut theorem. If the topology of a network (or link capacities) is dynamically changing or unknown, it is not…
We consider the problem of decomposing the edges of a directed graph into as few paths as possible. There is a natural lower bound for the number of paths needed in an edge decomposition of a directed graph $D$ in terms of its degree…
Given any graph $G$, the (adjacency) spread of $G$ is the maximum absolute difference between any two eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of $G$. In this paper, we resolve a pair of 20-year-old conjectures of Gregory, Hershkowitz, and…
In a recent work on the bipartite Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graph, Do et al. (2023) established upper bounds on the number of connected labeled bipartite graphs with a fixed surplus. We use some recent encodings of bipartite random graphs in…
The classical random matrix theory is mostly focused on asymptotic spectral properties of random matrices as their dimensions grow to infinity. At the same time many recent applications from convex geometry to functional analysis to…
Twin-width is a recently introduced graph parameter based on the repeated contraction of near-twins. It has shown remarkable utility in algorithmic and structural graph theory, as well as in finite model theory -- particularly since…
Let $\lambda^{*}$ be the maximum spectral radius of connected irregular graphs on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $\Delta$. Liu, Shen and Wang (2007) conjectured that $\lim_{n\rightarrow…
In this paper we introduce the concept of clique disjoint edge sets in graphs. Then, for a graph $G$, we define the invariant $\eta(G)$ as the maximum size of a clique disjoint edge set in $G$. We show that the regularity of the binomial…
Sidorenko's conjecture states that, for all bipartite graphs $H$, quasirandom graphs contain asymptotically the minimum number of copies of $H$ taken over all graphs with the same order and edge density. While still open for graphs, the…
Random geometric graphs result from taking $n$ uniformly distributed points in the unit cube, $[0,1]^d$, and connecting two points if their Euclidean distance is at most $r$, for some prescribed $r$. We show that monotone properties for…
Let $G$ be a distance-regular graph of order $v$ and size $e$. In this paper, we show that the max-cut in $G$ is at most $e(1-1/g)$, where $g$ is the odd girth of $G$. This result implies that the independence number of $G$ is at most…
A beautiful conjecture of Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits and Sidorenko states that if H is a bipartite graph, then the random graph with edge density p has in expectation asymptotically the minimum number of copies of H over all graphs of the same…
The maximum likelihood threshold (MLT) of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of samples to almost surely guarantee existence of the maximum likelihood estimate in the corresponding Gaussian graphical model. Recently a new characterization of…
A contraction sequence of a graph consists of iteratively merging two of its vertices until only one vertex remains. The recently introduced twin-width graph invariant is based on contraction sequences. More precisely, if one puts red edges…
For Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs with average degree $\gamma$, and uniformly random $\gamma$-regular graph on $n$ vertices, we prove that with high probability the size of both the Max-Cut and maximum bisection are…
In the sufficiently sparse case, we find the probability that a uniformly random bipartite graph with given degree sequence contains no edge from a specified set of edges. This enables us to enumerate loop-free digraphs and oriented graphs…
We characterize some asymptotic properties of edge exchangeable random graphs in terms of the measure used to generate them. In particular, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for eventual forever connectedness, a sufficient…
In this paper, we study rare events in spherical and Gaussian random geometric graphs in high dimensions. In these models, the vertices correspond to points sampled uniformly at random on the $d$ dimensional unit sphere or correspond to $d$…
For the size of the largest component in a supercritical random geometric graph, this paper estimates its expectation which tends to a polynomial on a rate of exponential decay, and sharpens its asymptotic result with a central limit…
