Two models of a random digraph on $n$ vertices, $D(n,\text{Prob}(\text{arc})=p)$ and $D(n,\text{number of arcs}=m)$ are studied. In 1990, Karp for $D(n,p)$ and independently T. \L uczak for $D(n,m=cn)$ proved that for $c>1$, with…

We study the problem of the existence of a giant component in a random multipartite graph. We consider a random multipartite graph with $p$ parts generated according to a given degree sequence $n_i^{\mathbf{d}}(n)$ which denotes the number…

We describe how to calculate the sizes of all giant connected components of a directed graph, including the {\em strongly} connected one. Just to the class of directed networks, in particular, belongs the World Wide Web. The results are…

Recently, the first author showed that the giant in random undirected graphs is `almost' local. This means that, under a necessary and sufficient condition, the limiting proportion of vertices in the giant converges in probability to the…

We study the component structure of the random graph $G=G_{n,m,d}$. Here $d=O(1)$ and $G$ is sampled uniformly from ${\mathcal G}_{n,m,d}$, the set of graphs with vertex set $[n]$, $m$ edges and maximum degree at most $d$. If $m=\mu n/2$…

We consider two classes of random graphs: $(a)$ Poissonian random graphs in which the $n$ vertices in the graph have i.i.d.\ weights distributed as $X$, where $\mathbb{E}(X) = \mu$. Edges are added according to a product measure and the…

For a fixed degree sequence $\mathcal{D}=(d_1,...,d_n)$, let $G(\mathcal{D})$ be a uniformly chosen (simple) graph on $\{1,...,n\}$ where the vertex $i$ has degree $d_i$. In this paper we determine whether $G(\mathcal{D})$ has a giant…

The number of spanning trees in the giant component of the random graph $\G(n, c/n)$ ($c>1$) grows like $\exp\big\{m\big(f(c)+o(1)\big)\big\}$ as $n\to\infty$, where $m$ is the number of vertices in the giant component. The function $f$ is…

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 present and investigate a general model for inhomogeneous random digraphs with labeled vertices, where the arcs are generated independently, and the probability of inserting an arc depends on the labels of its endpoints and its…

We study a dynamical random network model in which at every construction step a new vertex is introduced and attached to every existing vertex independently with a probability proportional to a concave function f of its current degree. We…

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…

Local convergence techniques have become a key methodology to study sparse random graphs. However, convergence of many random graph properties does not directly follow from local convergence. A notable, and important, such random graph…

We study the largest component of a random (multi)graph on n vertices with a given degree sequence. We let n tend to infinity. Then, under some regularity conditions on the degree sequences, we give conditions on the asymptotic shape of the…

Let $A(n,m)$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from the class of all vertex-labelled outerplanar graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. We consider $A(n,m)$ in the sparse regime when $m=n/2+s$ for $s=o(n)$. We show that with high…

We generalize the random graph evolution process of Bohman, Frieze, and Wormald [T. Bohman, A. Frieze, and N. C. Wormald, Random Struct. Algorithms, 25, 432 (2004)]. Potential edges, sampled uniformly at random from the complete graph, are…

We provide a complete description of the giant component of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,p)$ as soon as it emerges from the scaling window, i.e., for $p = (1+\epsilon)/n$ where $\epsilon^3 n \to \infty$ and $\epsilon=o(1)$. Our…

A uniformly random graph on $n$ vertices with a fixed degree sequence, obeying a $\gamma$ subpower law, is studied. It is shown that, for $\gamma>3$, in a subcritical phase with high probability the largest component size does not exceed…

We provide a sufficient condition on the isoperimetric properties of a regular graph $G$ of growing degree $d$, under which the random subgraph $G_p$ typically undergoes a phase transition around $p=\frac{1}{d}$ which resembles the…

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…
