We prove that for each $k\ge0$, the probability that a root vertex in a random planar graph has degree $k$ tends to a computable constant $d_k$, so that the expected number of vertices of degree $k$ is asymptotically $d_k n$, and moreover…

We provide a novel method for constructing asymptotics (to arbitrary accuracy) for the number of directed graphs that realize a fixed bidegree sequence $d = a \times b$ with maximum degree $d_{max}=O(S^{\frac{1}{2}-\tau})$ for an…

Let $d \geq 3$ be a fixed integer. We give an asympotic formula for the expected number of spanning trees in a uniformly random $d$-regular graph with $n$ vertices. (The asymptotics are as $n\to\infty$, restricted to even $n$ if $d$ is…

A finite non-increasing sequence of positive integers $d = (d_1\geq \cdots\geq d_n)$ is called a degree sequence if there is a graph $G = (V,E)$ with $V = \{v_1,\ldots,v_n\}$ and $deg(v_i)=d_i$ for $i=1,\ldots,n$. In that case we say that…

Let P_{n,d,D} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all labelled planar graphs on {1,2,...,n} with minimum degree at least d(n) and maximum degree at most D(n). We use counting arguments to investigate the probability…

Given an $n\times n$ symmetric matrix $W\in [0,1]^{[n]\times [n]}$, let $\mathcal{G}(n,W)$ be the random graph obtained by independently including each edge $jk$ with probability $W_{jk}$. Given a degree sequence ${\bf d}=(d_1,\ldots,…

We determine an asymptotic formula for the number of labelled 2-connected (simple) graphs on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, provided that $m-n\to\infty$ and $m=O(n\log n)$ as $n\to\infty$. This is the entire range of $m$ not covered by…

We show an asymptotic estimate for the number of labelled planar graphs on $n$ vertices. We also find limit laws for the number of edges, the number of connected components, and other parameters in random planar graphs.

We show that the number of perfect matching in a simple graph $G$ with an even number of vertices and degree sequence $d_1,d_2, ..., d_n$ is at most $\prod_{i=1}^n (d_i !)^{\frac{1}{2d_i}}$. This bound is sharp if and only if $G$ is a union…

For the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph G(n,p), we give a precise asymptotic formula for the size of a largest vertex subset in G(n,p) that induces a subgraph with average degree at most t, provided that p = p(n) is not too small and t =…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of orientations with given out-degree (score) sequence for a graph $G$. The graph $G$ is assumed to have average degrees at least $n^{1/3 + \varepsilon}$ for some $\varepsilon > 0$, and to have…

We give sufficient conditions under which a random graph with a specified degree sequence is symmetric or asymmetric. In the case of bounded degree sequences, our characterisation captures the phase transition of the symmetry of the random…

Consider a random multigraph G* with given vertex degrees d_1,...,d_n, contructed by the configuration model. We show that, asymptotically for a sequence of such multigraphs with the number of edges (d_1+...+d_n)/2 tending to infinity, the…

We conjecture that the distribution of the edge-disjoint union of two random regular graphs on the same vertex set is asymptotically equivalent to a random regular graph of the combined degree, provided it grows as the number of vertices…

We analyse the size of an independent set in a random graph on $n$ vertices with specified vertex degrees, constructed via a simple greedy algorithm: order the vertices arbitrarily, and, for each vertex in turn, place it in the independent…

A $d$-regular graph on $n$ nodes has at most $T_{\max} = \frac{n}{3} \tbinom{d}{2}$ triangles. We compute the leading asymptotics of the probability that a large random $d$-regular graph has at least $c \cdot T_{\max}$ triangles, and…

Let $\mathbb{G}^{D}$ be the set of graphs $G(V,\, E)$ with $\left|V\right|=n$, and the degree sequence equal to $D=(d_{1},\, d_{2},\,\dots,\, d_{n})$. In addition, for $\frac{1}{2}<a<1$, we define the set of graphs with an almost given…

Inspired by a concept in comparative genomics, we investigate properties of randomly chosen members of G_1(m,n,t), the set of bipartite graphs with $m$ left vertices, n right vertices, t edges, and each vertex of degree at least one. We…

We study the cover time of a random graph chosen uniformly at random from the set of graphs with vertex set $[n]$ and degree sequence $\mathbf{d}=(d_i)_{i=1}^n$. In a previous work, the asymptotic cover time was obtained under a number of…

Random graphs with a given degree sequence are often constructed using the configuration model, which yields a random multigraph. We may adjust this multigraph by a sequence of switchings, eventually yielding a simple graph. We show that,…
