We generalize an algorithm used widely in the configuration model such that power-law degree sequences with the degree exponent $\lambda$ and the number of links per node $K$ controllable independently may be generated. It yields the degree…

We study the problem of the existence of a giant component in a random multipartite graph. We consider a random multipartite graph with $p$ parts generated according to a given degree sequence $n_i^{\mathbf{d}}(n)$ which denotes the number…

The mincut graph bisection problem involves partitioning the n vertices of a graph into disjoint subsets, each containing exactly n/2 vertices, while minimizing the number of "cut" edges with an endpoint in each subset. When considered over…

Let $F(N,m)$ denote a random forest on a set of $N$ vertices, chosen uniformly from all forests with $m$ edges. Let $F(N,p)$ denote the forest obtained by conditioning the Erdos-Renyi graph $G(N,p)$ to be acyclic. We describe scaling limits…

We consider the strongly connected components (SCCs) of a uniform directed graph on $n$ vertices with i.i.d. in- and out-degree pairs distributed as $(D^-,D^+)$, with $\mathbb E[D^+]=\mathbb E[D^-]=\mu$. We condition on equal total in- and…

Let $\mathcal{C}_1$ denote the largest connected component of the critical Erd\H{o}s--R\'{e}nyi random graph $G(n,{\frac{1}{n}})$. We show that, typically, the diameter of $\mathcal{C}_1$ is of order $n^{1/3}$ and the mixing time of the…

We analyze a minimal model of a growing network. At each time step, a new vertex is added; then, with probability delta, two vertices are chosen uniformly at random and joined by an undirected edge. This process is repeated for t time…

Bounded-size rules are dynamic random graph processes which incorporate limited choice along with randomness in the evolution of the system. One starts with the empty graph and at each stage two edges are chosen uniformly at random. One of…

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.…

We describe a robust methodology, based on the martingale argument of Nachmias and Peres and random walk estimates, to obtain simple upper and lower bounds on the size of a maximal component in several random graphs \textit{at criticality}.…

A random graph process, $\Gorg[1](n)$, is a sequence of graphs on $n$ vertices which begins with the edgeless graph, and where at each step a single edge is added according to a uniform distribution on the missing edges. It is well known…

In this paper we study the component structure of random graphs with independence between the edges. Under mild assumptions, we determine whether there is a giant component, and find its asymptotic size when it exists. We assume that the…

We present a detailed study of the evolution of the number of connected components in sub-critical multiplicative random graph processes. We consider a model where edges appear independently after an exponential time at rate equal to the…

We study the critical behavior of inhomogeneous random graphs where edges are present independently but with unequal edge occupation probabilities. The edge probabilities are moderated by vertex weights, and are such that the degree of…

We show that in three different critical regimes, the masses of the connected components of rank-2 multiplicative random graph converge to lengths of excursions of a thinned L\'{e}vy process, perhaps with random coefficients. The three…

We study the joint components in a random `double graph' that is obtained by superposing red and blue binomial random graphs on $n$~vertices. A joint component is a maximal set of vertices, which contains both a red and a blue spanning…

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,…

Consider a uniform expanders family G_n with a uniform bound on the degrees. It is shown that for any p and c>0, a random subgraph of G_n obtained by retaining each edge, randomly and independently, with probability p, will have at most one…

Scale-free networks with moderate edge dependence experience a phase transition between ultrasmall and small world behaviour when the power law exponent passes the critical value of three. Moreover, there are laws of large numbers for the…

We provide sufficient conditions for a regular graph $G$ of growing degree $d$, guaranteeing a phase transition in its random subgraph $G_p$ similar to that of $G(n,p)$ when $p\cdot d\approx 1$. These conditions capture several well-studied…
