The MultiQueue is a relaxed concurrent priority queue consisting of $n$ internal priority queues, where an insertion uses a random queue and a deletion considers two random queues and deletes the minimum from the one with the smaller…

Rank 1 inhomogeneous random graphs are a natural generalization of Erd\H{o}s R\'enyi random graphs. In this generalization each node is given a weight. Then the probability that an edge is present depends on the product of the weights of…

The scaled standard Wigner matrix (symmetric with mean zero, variance one i.i.d. entries), and its limiting eigenvalue distribution, namely the semi-circular distribution, has attracted much attention. The $2k$th moment of the limit equals…

We investigate the structure of large uniform random maps with $n$ edges, $\mathrm{f}_n$ faces, and with genus $\mathrm{g}_n$ in the so-called sparse case, where the ratio between the number vertices and edges tends to $1$. We focus on two…

The Gram matrix is a classical object formed from the pairwise inner products of a collection of vectors, with fundamental roles in functional analysis, statistics, combinatorics, and coding theory. In the realm of sequence design,…

Let $P(n,m)$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from the class of all planar graphs on vertex set $\left\{1, \ldots, n\right\}$ with $m=m(n)$ edges. We show that in the sparse regime, when $\limsup_{n \to \infty} m/n<1$, with high…

Consider a two-class classification problem where the number of features is much larger than the sample size. The features are masked by Gaussian noise with mean zero and covariance matrix $\Sigma$, where the precision matrix…

We develop a general procedure that finds recursions for statistics counting isomorphic copies of a graph $G_0$ in the common random graph models ${\cal G}(n,m)$ and ${\cal G}(n,p)$. Our results apply when the average degrees of the random…

Hypergraphs are structures that can be decomposed or described; in other words they are recursively countable. Here, we get exact and asymptotic enumeration results on hypergraphs by means of exponential generating functions. The number of…

The rank of a graph is defined to be the rank of its adjacency matrix. A graph is called reduced if it has no isolated vertices and no two vertices with the same set of neighbors. Akbari, Cameron, and Khosrovshahi conjectured that the…

Matrix completion is a classical problem that has received recurring interest across a wide range of fields. In this paper, we revisit this problem in an ultra-sparse sampling regime, where each entry of an unknown, $n\times d$ matrix $M$…

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…

A novel lower bound is introduced for the full rank probability of random finite field matrices, where a number of elements with known location are identically zero, and remaining elements are chosen independently of each other, uniformly…

For an $n \times n$ matrix $M$ with entries in $\mathbb{Z}_2$ denote by $R(M)$ the minimal rank of all the matrices obtained by changing some numbers on the main diagonal of $M$. We prove that for each non-negative integer $k$ there is a…

We propose the following model of a random graph on n vertices. Let F be a distribution in R_+^{n(n-1)/2} with a coordinate for every pair i$ with 1 \le i,j \le n. Then G_{F,p} is the distribution on graphs with n vertices obtained by…

We consider three different models of sparse random graphs:~undirected and directed Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graphs, and random bipartite graph with an equal number of left and right vertices. For such graphs we show that if the edge…

We determine the rank of a random matrix A over a finite field with prescribed numbers of non-zero entries in each row and column. As an application we obtain a formula for the rate of low-density parity check codes. This formula verifies a…

Consider a random bipartite multigraph $G$ with $n$ left nodes and $m \geq n \geq 2$ right nodes. Each left node $x$ has $d_x \geq 1$ random right neighbors. The average left degree $\Delta$ is fixed, $\Delta \geq 2$. We ask whether for the…

Let $P(n,m)$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from the class of all planar graphs on vertex set $\left\{1, \ldots, n\right\}$ with $m=m(n)$ edges. We determine the (Benjamini-Schramm) local weak limit of $P(n,m)$ in the sparse regime…

Suppose we are given a matrix that is formed by adding an unknown sparse matrix to an unknown low-rank matrix. Our goal is to decompose the given matrix into its sparse and low-rank components. Such a problem arises in a number of…
