Random K-out graphs are receiving attention as a model to construct sparse yet well-connected topologies in distributed systems including sensor networks, federated learning, and cryptocurrency networks. In response to the growing…

The Norros-Reittu model is a random graph with $n$ vertices and i.i.d. weights assigned to them. The number of edges between any two vertices follows an independent Poisson distribution whose parameter is increasing in the weights of the…

It is shown that in a subcritical random graph with given vertex degrees satisfying a power law degree distribution with exponent $\gamma>3$, the largest component is of order $n^{1/(\gamma-1)}$. More precisely, the order of the largest…

Let $\mathcal{T}_n$ be the set of all mappings $T:[n]\to[n]$, where $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. The corresponding graph $G_T$ of $T$, called a functional digraph, is a union of disjoint connected components. Each component is a directed cycle…

Order the vertices of a directed random graph \math{v_1,...,v_n}; edge \math{(v_i,v_j)} for \math{i<j} exists independently with probability \math{p}. This random graph model is related to certain spreading processes on networks. We…

We study the appearance of the giant component in random subgraphs of a given large finite graph G=(V,E) in which each edge is present independently with probability p. We show that if G is an expander with vertices of bounded degree, then…

We provide sufficient conditions for a regular graph $G$ of growing degree $d$, guaranteeing a phase transition in its random subgraph $G_p$ similar to that of $G(n,p)$ when $p\cdot d\approx 1$. These conditions capture several well-studied…

Consider a 2-dimensional soft random geometric graph $G(\lambda,s,\phi)$, obtained by placing a Poisson($\lambda s^2$) number of vertices uniformly at random in a square of side $s$, with edges placed between each pair $x,y$ of vertices…

We consider connected components in $k$-uniform hypergraphs for the following notion of connectedness: given integers $k\ge 2$ and $1\le j \le k-1$, two $j$-sets (of vertices) lie in the same $j$-component if there is a sequence of edges…

Given b>0, integers n, m=bn and a probability measure Q on {0, 1,..., m}, consider the random intersection graph on the vertex set [n]={1, ..., n}, where i and j are declared adjacent whenever S(i) and S(j) intersect. Here S(1), ..., S(n)…

We consider a model for random hypergraphs with identifiability, an analogue of connectedness. This model has a phase transition in the proportion of identifiable vertices when the underlying random graph becomes critical. The phase…

We introduce the study of \textit{randomly oriented divisor graphs}. For each $\rho \in [0,1]$, the randomly oriented divisor graph $\mathcal{D}_\rho(N)$ is obtained from the divisor graph on $\{1, 2, \ldots, N\}$ by directing each edge…

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…
