We consider the following random graph process: starting with n isolated vertices, add edges uniformly at random provided no such edge creates a copy of C_4. We show that, with probability tending to 1 as $n \to \infty$, the final graph…

We consider the K_4-free process. In this process, the edges of the complete n-vertex graph are traversed in a uniformly random order, and each traversed edge is added to an initially empty evolving graph, unless the addition of the edge…

A graph is $H$-free if it does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. The diamond graph is the graph obtained from $K_4$ by deleting one edge. We prove that if $G$ is a connected graph with order $n\geq 10$, then there exists a subset $S\subseteq…

A diamond is the graph that is obtained from removing an edge from the complete graph on $4$ vertices. A ($C_4$,diamond)-free graph is a graph that does not contain a diamond or a cycle on four vertices as induced subgraphs. Let $G$ be a…

The K_4-free process starts with the empty graph on n vertices and at each step adds a new edge chosen uniformly at random from all remaining edges that do not complete a copy of K_4. Let G be the random maximal K_4-free graph obtained at…

Consider the following stochastic graph process. We begin with the empty graph on n vertices and add edges one at a time, where each edge is chosen uniformly at random from the collection of potential edges that do not form triangles when…

We consider the triangle-free process: given an integer n, start by taking a uniformly random ordering of the edges of the complete n-vertex graph K_n. Then, traverse the ordered edges and add each traversed edge to an (initially empty)…

The triangle-free process begins with an empty graph on n vertices and iteratively adds edges chosen uniformly at random subject to the constraint that no triangle is formed. We determine the asymptotic number of edges in the maximal…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a graph property which is preserved by removal of edges, and consider the random graph process that starts with the empty $n$-vertex graph and then adds edges one-by-one, each chosen uniformly at random subject to the…

The H-free process, for some fixed graph H, is the random graph process defined by starting with an empty graph on n vertices and then adding edges one at a time, chosen uniformly at random subject to the constraint that no H subgraph is…

An even hole is an induced chordless cycle of even length at least four. A diamond is an induced subgraph isomorphic to K_4-e. We show that graphs without even holes and without diamonds can be decomposed via clique-separators into graphs…

One interesting question is how a graph develops from some constrained random graph process, which is a fundamental mechanism in the formation and evolution of dynamic networks. The problem here is referred to the random $K_k$-removal…

We investigate random processes for generating task-dependency graphs of order $n$ with $m$ edges and a specified number of initial vertices and terminal vertices. In order to do so, we consider two random processes for generating…

A diamond is a graph obtained by removing an edge from a complete graph on four vertices. A graph is diamond-free if it does not contain an induced diamond. The Diamond-free Edge Deletion problem asks whether there exist at most $k$ edges…

We introduce and study a novel semi-random multigraph process, described as follows. The process starts with an empty graph on $n$ vertices. In every round of the process, one vertex $v$ of the graph is picked uniformly at random and…

The C_\ell-free process starts with the empty graph on n vertices and adds edges chosen uniformly at random, one at a time, subject to the condition that no copy of C_\ell is created. For every $\ell \geq 4$ we show that, with high…

The H-free process starts with the empty graph on n vertices and adds edges chosen uniformly at random, one at a time, subject to the condition that no copy of H is created, where H is some fixed graph. When H is strictly 2-balanced, we…

The diamond is the graph obtained by removing an edge from the complete graph on 4 vertices. A graph is ($P_6$, diamond)-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to a six-vertex path or a diamond. In this paper we show that the…

Random K-out graphs, denoted $\mathbb{H}(n;K)$, are generated by each of the $n$ nodes drawing $K$ out-edges towards $K$ distinct nodes selected uniformly at random, and then ignoring the orientation of the arcs. Recently, random K-out…

As suggested by Itai Benjamini, we introduced a variant of the Erd\"os- R\'enyi random graph process with a forbidden degree $k$, in which every edge adjacent to a vertex $v$ is removed when the degree of $v$ reaches $k$ (but the removed…
