The discrete distribution of the length of longest increasing subsequences in random permutations of $n$ integers is deeply related to random matrix theory. In a seminal work, Baik, Deift and Johansson provided an asymptotics in terms of…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of primes and $\pi(x)$ the number of primes not exceeding $x$. Let also $P^+(n)$ be the largest prime factor of $n$ with convention $P^+(1)=1$ and $$ T_c(x)=\#\left\{p\le x:p\in \mathcal{P},P^+(p-1)\ge…

For $\ell\colon \mathbb{R}^d \to [0,\infty)$ we consider the sequence of probability measures $\left(\mu_n\right)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$, where $\mu_n$ is determined by a density that is proportional to $\exp(-n\ell)$. We allow for infinitely…

Finding the length of the longest increasing subsequence (LIS) is a classic algorithmic problem. Let $n$ denote the size of the array. Simple $O(n\log n)$ algorithms are known for this problem. We develop a polylogarithmic time randomized…

Suppose that $X$ is a simple random walk on $\Z_n^d$ for $d \geq 3$ and, for each $t$, we let $\U(t)$ consist of those $x \in \Z_n^d$ which have not been visited by $X$ by time $t$. Let $\tcov$ be the expected amount of time that it takes…

We consider the length $L(n)$ of the longest path in a randomly generated Apollonian Network (ApN) ${\cal A}_n$. We show that w.h.p. $L(n)\leq ne^{-\log^cn}$ for any constant $c<2/3$.

For a graph $G$ and $p\in [0,1]$, let $G_p$ arise from $G$ by deleting every edge mutually independently with probability $1-p$. The random graph model $(K_n)_p$ is certainly the most investigated random graph model and also known as the…
