For a given graph $G$ of minimum degree at least $k$, let $G_p$ denote the random spanning subgraph of $G$ obtained by retaining each edge independently with probability $p=p(k)$. We prove that if $p \ge \frac{\log k + \log \log k +…
We prove that in all regular robust expanders $G$ every edge is asymptotically equally likely contained in a uniformly chosen perfect matching $M$. We also show that given any fixed matching or spanning regular graph $N$ in $G$, the random…
Let $G_1,\dots, G_m$ be independent identically distributed Bernoulli random subgraphs of the complete graph ${\cal K}_n$ having vertex sets of random sizes $X_1,\dots, X_m\in \{0,1,2,\dots\}$ and random edge densities $Q_1,\dots, Q_m\in…
Let $K_{n,n}$ be the complete bipartite graph with $n$ vertices in each side. For each vertex draw uniformly at random a list of size $k$ from a base set $S$ of size $s=s(n)$. In this paper we estimate the asymptotic probability of the…
A connected undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ is given. This paper presents an algorithm that samples (non-uniformly) a $K$ partition $U_1,\ldots U_K$ of the graph nodes $V$, such that the subgraph induced by each $U_k$, with $k=1:K$, is…
An uncertain graph $\mathcal{G} = (V, E, p : E \rightarrow (0,1])$ can be viewed as a probability space whose outcomes (referred to as \emph{possible worlds}) are subgraphs of $\mathcal{G}$ where any edge $e\in E$ occurs with probability…

Each vertex of an arbitrary simple graph on $n$ vertices chooses $k$ random incident edges. What is the expected number of edges in the original graph that connect different connected components of the sampled subgraph? We prove that the…
Let $f = \sum_{k=0}^n \varepsilon_k z^k$ be a random polynomial, where $\varepsilon_0,\ldots ,\varepsilon_n$ are iid standard Gaussian random variables, and let $\zeta_1,\ldots,\zeta_n$ denote the roots of $f$. We show that the point…
The Ramsey number $r(G,H)$ is the minimum $N$ such that every graph on $N$ vertices contains $G$ as a subgraph or its complement contains $H$ as a subgraph. For integers $n \geq k \geq 1$, the $k$-book $B_{k,n}$ is the graph on $n$ vertices…
For a graph G, the neighborhood complex N[G] is the simplicial complex having all subsets of vertices with a common neighbor as its faces. It is a well known result of Lovasz that if N[G] is k-connected, then the chromatic number of G is at…
Pick n points independently at random in R^2, according to a prescribed probability measure mu, and let D^n_1 <= D^n_2 <= ... be the areas of the binomial n choose 3 triangles thus formed, in non-decreasing order. If mu is absolutely…
Let $k$ be a nonnegative integer. In the approximate $k$-flat nearest neighbor ($k$-ANN) problem, we are given a set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of $n$ points in $d$-dimensional space and a fixed approximation factor $c > 1$. Our goal is to…
We say that a graph $G$ is Ramsey for $H_1$ versus $H_2$, and write $G \to (H_1,H_2)$, if every red-blue colouring of the edges of $G$ contains either a red copy of $H_1$ or a blue copy of $H_2$. In this paper we study the threshold for the…
The \textit{toughness} $t(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a measure of its connectivity that is closely related to Hamiltonicity. Brouwer proved the lower bound $t(G) > \ell / \lambda - 2$ on the toughness of any connected $\ell$-regular graph, where…
The main result of this paper is a proof of the following conjecture of Babson & Kozlov: Theorem. Let G be a graph of maximal valency d, then the complex Hom(G,K_n) is at least (n-d-2)-connected. Here Hom(-,-) denotes the polyhedral complex…
One of the most basic results in graph theory states that every graph with at least two vertices has two vertices with the same degree. Since there are graphs without $3$ vertices of the same degree, it is natural to ask if for any fixed…
For a positive integer $k$ and a graph $H$ on $k$ vertices, we are interested in the inducibility of $H$, denoted $\mathrm{ind}(H)$, which is defined as the maximum possible probability that choosing $k$ vertices uniformly at random from a…
In this paper, we study the connectivity of a one-dimensional soft random geometric graph (RGG). The graph is generated by placing points at random on a bounded line segment and connecting pairs of points with a probability that depends on…
Random $s$-intersection graphs have recently received much interest in a wide range of application areas. Broadly speaking, a random $s$-intersection graph is constructed by first assigning each vertex a set of items in some random manner,…
