We show that large deviation properties of Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graphs can be derived from the free energy of the $q$-state Potts model of statistical mechanics. More precisely the Legendre transform of the Potts free energy with respect…

We study monotone paths in Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs on numbered vertices. Benjamini & Tzalik established a phase transition at $p = \frac{\log n}{n}$ for this model. We refine the critical value to $p = \frac{\log n - \log \log n…

We consider a variant of the classical Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph, where components with surplus are slowed down to prevent the apparition of complex components. The sizes of the components of this process undergo a similar phase…

We consider an Erdos-Renyi random graph consisting of N vertices connected by randomly and independently drawing an edge between every pair of them with probability c/N so that at N->infinity one obtains a graph of finite mean degree c. In…

We study the "rank 1 case" of the inhomogeneous random graph model. In the subcritical case we derive an exact formula for the asymptotic size of the largest connected component scaled to log n. This result is new, it completes the…

The Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi process begins with an empty graph on n vertices and edges are added randomly one at a time to a graph. A classical result of Erd\H{o}s and R\'{e}nyi states that the Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi process undergoes a phase…

Recently, we adapted random walk arguments based on work of Nachmias and Peres, Martin-L\"of, Karp and Aldous to give a simple proof of the asymptotic normality of the size of the giant component in the random graph $G(n,p)$ above the phase…

We prove a moderate deviations principles for the size of the largest connected component in a random $d$-uniform hypergraph. The key tool is a version of the exploration process, that is also used to investigate the giant component of an…

We consider random graphs in which the edges are allowed to be dependent. In our model the edge dependence is quite general, we call it $p$-robust random graph. It means that every edge is present with probability at least $p$, regardless…

A random graph process, $\Gorg[1](n)$, is a sequence of graphs on $n$ vertices which begins with the edgeless graph, and where at each step a single edge is added according to a uniform distribution on the missing edges. It is well known…

The phase diagram of a system of monodispersed hard rectangles of size $m\times m k$ on a square lattice is numerically determined for $m=2,3$ and aspect ratio $k= 1,2,\ldots, 7$. We show the existence of a disordered phase, a nematic phase…

We consider the Erdos-Renyi random graph G(n,p) inside the critical window, where p = 1/n + lambda * n^{-4/3} for some lambda in R. We proved in a previous paper (arXiv:0903.4730) that considering the connected components of G(n,p) as a…

We describe the anomalous phase transition of the emergence of the giant connected component in scale-free networks growing under mechanism of preferential linking. We obtain exact results for the size of the giant connected component and…

We consider a random walk on a $d$-regular graph $G$ where $d\to\infty$ and $G$ satisfies certain conditions. Our prime example is the $d$-dimensional hypercube, which has $n=2^d$ vertices. We explore the likely component structure of the…

The exponential family of random graphs represents an important and challenging class of network models. Despite their flexibility, conventionally used exponential random graphs have one shortcoming. They cannot directly model weighted…

We construct a compound Poisson process conditioned on its random summation that represents the sizes of the connected components in the sparse Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,c/n)$. This new representation depicts a connection between…

We study the joint components in a random `double graph' that is obtained by superposing red and blue binomial random graphs on $n$~vertices. A joint component is a maximal set of vertices, which contains both a red and a blue spanning…

We consider the random directed graph $\vec{G}(n,p)$ with vertex set $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ in which each of the $n(n-1)$ possible directed edges is present independently with probability $p$. We are interested in the strongly connected…
