This Master's thesis examines the properties of large degree vertices in random recursive directed acyclic graphs (RRDAGs), a generalization of the well-studied random recursive tree (RRT) model. Using a novel adaptation of Kingman's…

When an infection spreads in a community, an individual's probability of becoming infected depends on both her susceptibility and exposure to the contagion through contact with others. While one often has knowledge regarding an individual's…

Consider a random regular graph of fixed degree $d$ with $n$ vertices. We study spectral properties of the adjacency matrix and of random Schr\"odinger operators on such a graph as $n$ tends to infinity. We prove that the integrated density…

We study eigenvalue distribution of the adjacency matrix $A^{(N,p,q)}$ of weighted random uniform $q$-hypergraphs $\Gamma= \Gamma_{N,p,q}$. We assume that the graphs have $N$ vertices and the average number of hyperedges attached to one…

We develop a theory to measure the variance and covariance of probability distributions defined on the nodes of a graph, which takes into account the distance between nodes. Our approach generalizes the usual (co)variance to the setting of…

In this paper, we give an analytic solution for graphs with n nodes and E edges for which the probability of obtaining a given graph G is specified in terms of the degree sequence of G. We describe how this model naturally appears in the…

Many natural and social systems develop complex networks, that are usually modelled as random graphs. The eigenvalue spectrum of these graphs provides information about their structural properties. While the semi-circle law is known to…

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…
