A finite ergodic Markov chain exhibits cutoff if its distance to equilibrium remains close to its initial value over a certain number of iterations and then abruptly drops to near 0 on a much shorter time scale. Originally discovered in the…

We introduce the notion of Benjamini-Schramm convergence for quantum graphs. This notion of convergence, intended to play the role of the already existing notion for discrete graphs, means that the restriction of the quantum graph to a…

A major question in the study of the Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph is to understand the probability that it contains a given subgraph. This study originated in classical work of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi (1960). More recent work studies this…
