We investigate the estimation of the perimeter of a set by a graph cut of a random geometric graph. For $\Omega \subset D = (0,1)^d$, with $d \geq 2$, we are given $n$ random i.i.d. points on $D$ whose membership in $\Omega$ is known. We…

We study the growth of random networks under a constraint that the diameter, defined as the average shortest path length between all nodes, remains approximately constant. We show that if the graph maintains the form of its degree…

An $\epsilon$-distance-uniform graph is one in which from every vertex, all but an $\epsilon$-fraction of the remaining vertices are at some fixed distance $d$, called the critical distance. We consider the maximum possible value of $d$ in…

We show that the diameter D(G_n) of a random labelled connected planar graph with n vertices is equal to n^{1/4+o(1)}, in probability. More precisely there exists a constant c>0 such that the probability that D(G_n) lies in the interval…

We consider random Cayley digraphs of order $n$ with uniformly distributed generating set of size $k$. Specifically, we are interested in the asymptotics of the probability such a Cayley digraph has diameter two as $n\to\infty$ and…

Let $D(n,r)$ be a random $r$-out regular directed multigraph on the set of vertices $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. In this work, we establish that for every $r \ge 2$, there exists $\eta_r>0$ such that $\text{diam}(D(n,r))=(1+\eta_r+o(1))\log_r{n}$. Our…

We consider the following long range percolation model: an undirected graph with the node set $\{0,1,...,N\}^d$, has edges $(\x,\y)$ selected with probability $\approx \beta/||\x-\y||^s$ if $||\x-\y||>1$, and with probability 1 if…

Fix $d \ge 3$. We show the existence of a constant $c>0$ such that any graph of diameter at most $d$ has average distance at most $d-c \frac{d^{3/2}}{\sqrt n}$, where $n$ is the number of vertices. Moreover, we exhibit graphs certifying…

Many real-world networks exhibit the so-called small-world phenomenon: their typical distances are much smaller than their sizes. One mathematical model for this phenomenon is a long-range percolation graph on a $d$-dimensional box $\{0, 1,…

For a simple graph $G$, the $2$-distance graph, $D_2(G)$, is a graph with the vertex set $V(G)$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is $2$ in the graph $G$. In this paper, for graphs $G$ with diameter 2, we show that…

We study random graphs with an i.i.d. degree sequence of which the tail of the distribution function $F$ is regularly varying with exponent $\tau\in (1,2)$. Thus, the degrees have infinite mean. Such random graphs can serve as models for…

The diameter of a graph is the maximum distance among all pairs of vertices. Thus a graph $G$ has diameter $d$ if any two vertices are at distance at most $d$ and there are two vertices at distance $d$. We are interested in studying the…

We study the asymptotic diameter of the preferential attachment model $\operatorname{PA}\!_n^{(m,\delta)}$ with parameters $m \ge 2$ and $\delta > 0$. Building on the recent work \cite{VZ25}, we prove that the diameter of $G_n \sim…

The min-diameter of a directed graph $G$ is a measure of the largest distance between nodes. It is equal to the maximum min-distance $d_{min}(u,v)$ across all pairs $u,v \in V(G)$, where $d_{min}(u,v) = \min(d(u,v), d(v,u))$. Our work…
