We discuss the scaling limit of large planar quadrangulations with a boundary whose length is of order the square root of the number of faces. We consider a sequence $(\sigma_n)$ of integers such that $\sigma_n/\sqrt{2n}$ tends to some…

We prove that any length metric space homeomorphic to a 2-manifold with boundary, also called a length surface, is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of polyhedral surfaces with controlled geometry. As an application, using the classical…

We consider uniform random cographs (either labeled or unlabeled) of large size. Our first main result is the convergence towards a Brownian limiting object in the space of graphons. We then show that the degree of a uniform random vertex…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of uniform random maps with a prescribed face-degree sequence, in the bipartite case, as the number of faces tends to infinity. Under mild assumptions, we show that, properly rescaled, such maps converge in…

Given metric quotients $S$ and $S_n$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$, of a metric space $X$, sufficient conditions are provided on the data defining them guaranteeing that $S$ is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of $S_n$. These conditions are recognized…

A planar map is outerplanar if all its vertices belong to the same face. We show that random uniform outerplanar maps with $n$ vertices suitably rescaled by a factor $1/ \sqrt{n}$ converge in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to…

We study the phase diagram of random outerplanar maps sampled according to non-negative Boltzmann weights that are assigned to each face of a map. We prove that for certain choices of weights the map looks like a rescaled version of its…

We study geodesics in the random metric space called the Brownian map, which appears as the scaling limit of large planar maps. In particular, we completely describe geodesics starting from the distinguished point called the root, and we…

The Brownian map is a random geodesic metric space arising as the scaling limit of random planar maps. We strengthen the so-called confluence of geodesics phenomenon observed at the root of the map, and with this, reveal several properties…

We show that, under certain natural assumptions, large random plane bipartite maps with a boundary converge after rescaling to a one-parameter family ($\mathrm{BD}_L$, $0 < L < \infty$) of random metric spaces homeomorphic to the closed…

We study a model of random $\mathcal{R}$-enriched trees that is based on weights on the $\mathcal{R}$-structures and allows for a unified treatment of a large family of random discrete structures. We establish distributional limits…

We consider the model of the Brownian plane, which is a pointed non-compact random metric space with the topology of the complex plane. The Brownian plane can be obtained as the scaling limit in distribution of the uniform infinite planar…

A finite graph embedded in the plane is called a series-parallel map if it can be obtained from a finite tree by repeatedly subdividing and doubling edges. We study the scaling limit of weighted random two-connected series-parallel maps…

Given $0<\alpha\leq\pi$, ${\epsilon}>0$ and $n$, we define random graphs on the $d$-dimensional sphere by drawing $n$ i.i.d. uniform random points for the vertices, and edges $u {\sim} v$ whenever the geodesic distance between $u$ and $v$…

In this last decade, an important stochastic model emerged: the Brownian map. It is the limit of various models of random combinatorial maps after rescaling: it is a random metric space with Hausdorff dimension 4, almost surely homeomorphic…
