Let G_<(n,p) denote the usual random graph G(n,p) on a totally ordered set of n vertices. We will fix p=1/2 for definiteness. Let L^< denote the first order language with predicates equality (x=y), adjacency (x~y) and less than (x<y). For…

We consider first order expressible properties of random perfect graphs. That is, we pick a graph $G_n$ uniformly at random from all (labelled) perfect graphs on $n$ vertices and consider the probability that it satisfies some graph…

In this paper the limit probabilities of first-order properties are studied. The random graph $G(n,p)$ {\it obeys Zero-One $k$-Law} if for each first-order property with quantifier depth not greater than $k$ its probability tends to 0 or…

We study asymptotical probabilities of first order and monadic second order properties of Erdos-Renyi random graph G(n,n^{-a}). The random graph obeys FO (MSO) zero-one k-law if for any first order (monadic second order) formulae it is true…

The literature on word-representable graphs is quite rich, and a number of variations of the original definition have been proposed over the years. We are initiating a systematic study of such variations based on formal languages. In our…

In this work limit probabilities of first-order properties of the random $s$-uniform hypergraph in the binomial model $G^{s}(n,p)$ are studied. We give a complete discription of all positive $\alpha$ such that $G^{s}(n,n^{-\alpha})$ obeys…

We establish zero-one laws and convergence laws for monadic second-order logic (MSO) (and, a fortiori, first-order logic) on a number of interesting graph classes. In particular, we show that MSO obeys a zero-one law on the class of…

A zero-one language L is a regular language whose asymptotic probability converges to either zero or one. In this case, we say that L obeys the zero-one law. We prove that a regular language obeys the zero-one law if and only if its…

Traditionally, graph algorithms get a single graph as input, and then they should decide if this graph satisfies a certain property $\Phi$. What happens if this question is modified in a way that we get a possibly infinite family of graphs…

In this paper, we study zero-one laws for the Erd\H{o}s--R\'{e}nyi random graph model $G(n,p)$ in the case when $p = n^{-\alpha}$ for $\alpha>0$. For a given class $\mathcal{K}$ of logical sentences about graphs and a given function…

We study an asymptotic behavior of the probabilities of first-order properties of random graph G(N,p) in the article. We conider p such that lnp=-alnN, a>0. We find values of parameter a from (1-exp(ln2(1-k)),1) such that the random graph…

In this work, we investigate the relationship between $k$-repre\-sentable graphs and graphs representable by $k$-local words. In particular, we show that every graph representable by a $k$-local word is $(k+1)$-representable. A previous…

We find a logic really stronger than first order for the random graph with edge probability $\frac 12$ but satisfies the 0-1 law. This means that on the one hand it satisfies the 0-1 law, e.g. for the random graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,1/2}$ and…

We study the relation between the growth rate of a graph property and the entropy of the graph limits that arise from graphs with that property. In particular, for hereditary classes we obtain a new description of the colouring number,…

We investigate three formalisms to specify graph languages, i.e. sets of graphs, based on type graphs. First, we are interested in (pure) type graphs, where the corresponding language consists of all graphs that can be mapped…

We consider the random graph M^n_{\bar{p}} on the set [n], were the probability of {x,y} being an edge is p_{|x-y|}, and \bar{p}=(p_1,p_2,p_3,...) is a series of probabilities. We consider the set of all \bar{q} derived from \bar{p} by…
