It is known that a graph isomorphism testing algorithm is polynomially equivalent to a detecting of a graph non-trivial automorphism algorithm. The polynomiality of the latter algorithm, is obtained by consideration of symmetry properties…

A random geometric digraph $G_n$ is constructed by taking $\{X_1,X_2,... X_n\}$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ independently at random with a common bounded density function. Each vertex $X_i$ is assigned at random a sector $S_i$ of central angle…

A complete first order theory of a relational signature is called monomorphic iff all its models are monomorphic (i.e. have all the $n$-element substructures isomorphic, for each positive integer $n$). We show that a complete theory…

The on-line nearest-neighbour graph on a sequence of $n$ uniform random points in $(0,1)^d$ ($d \in \N$) joins each point after the first to its nearest neighbour amongst its predecessors. For the total power-weighted edge-length of this…

Let $F_G(P)$ be a functional defined on the set of all the probability distributions on the vertex set of a graph $G$. We say that $G$ is \emph{symmetric with respect to $F_G(P)$} if the uniform distribution on $V(G)$ maximizes $F_G(P)$.…

Assume that there is a free group action of automorphisms on a bipartite graph. If there is a perfect matching on the factor graph, then obviously there is a perfect matching on the graph. Surprisingly, the reversed is also true for…

We study Hamiltonicity and pancyclicity in the graph obtained as the union of a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $H$ with $\delta(H)\geq\alpha n$ and a random $d$-regular graph $G$, for $d\in\{1,2\}$. When $G$ is a random $2$-regular graph,…

We consider the dynamics of $n$ points on a sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d \geq 2$) which attract each other according to a function $\varphi$ of their inner products. When $\varphi$ is linear ($\varphi(t) = t$), the points converge to a…

Let $G$ be a simple, connected graph on $n$ vertices, and further assume that $G$ has disjoint cycles. Let $h$ be a real symmetric matrix supported on $G$ (for example, a discrete Schr\"odinger operator). The eigenvalues of $h$ are ordered…

We consider the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$, where $p$ is a constant, and answer the following two questions. First, given $e(k)=p{k\choose 2}+O(k)$, what is the maximum $k$ such that a.a.s.~the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ has an…

Let $k$, $\lambda$ and $\mu$ be positive integers. A decomposition of a multigraph $ \lambda G$ into edge-disjoint subgraphs $G_1, \ldots , G_k$ is said to be \emph{enclosed} by a decomposition of a multigraph $\mu H$ into edge-disjoint…

This work studies fundamental limits for recovering the underlying correspondence among multiple correlated graphs. In the setting of inhomogeneous random graphs, we present and analyze a matching algorithm: first partially match the graphs…

Random directed graphs $D(n,p)$ undergo a phase transition around the point $p = 1/n$, and the width of the transition window has been known since the works of Luczak and Seierstad. They have established that as $n \to \infty$ when $p = (1…

We study Hamiltonicity in graphs obtained as the union of a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $H$ with linear degrees and a $d$-dimensional random geometric graph $G^d(n,r)$, for any $d\geq1$. We obtain an asymptotically optimal bound on the…

Limiting distributions are derived for the sparse connected components that are present when a random graph on $n$ vertices has approximately $\half n$ edges. In particular, we show that such a graph consists entirely of trees, unicyclic…

We give several results showing that different discrete structures typically gain certain spanning substructures (in particular, Hamilton cycles) after a modest random perturbation. First, we prove that adding linearly many random edges to…

Every transformation monoid comes equipped with a canonical topology-the topology of pointwise convergence. For some structures, the topology of the endomorphism monoid can be reconstructed from its underlying abstract monoid. This…

We study asymptotical probabilities of first order and monadic second order properties of Erdos-Renyi random graph G(n,n^{-a}). The random graph obeys FO (MSO) zero-one k-law if for any first order (monadic second order) formulae it is true…

An independent set in a graph is a set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices, and alpha(G) is the size of a maximum independent set in the graph G. A matching is a set of non-incident edges, while mu(G) is the cardinality of a maximum matching.…

The twisted graph $T_{n}$ is a drawing of the complete graph with $n$ vertices $v_{1},v_{2},\ldots ,v_{n}$ in which two edges $v_{i}v_{j}$ ($i<j$) and $v_{s}v_{t}$ ($s<t$) cross if and only if $i<s<t<j$ or $s<i<j<t$. We show that for any…
