The Eulerian extension number of any graph~\(H\) (i.e. the minimum number of edges needed to be added to make~\(H\) Eulerian) is at least~\(t(H),\) half the number of odd degree vertices of~\(H.\) In this paper we consider an inhomogenous…

We consider the following question. We have a dense regular graph $G$ with degree $\alpha n$, where $\alpha>0$ is a constant. We add $m=o(n^2)$ random edges. The edges of the augmented graph $G(m)$ are given independent edge weights $X(e)$,…

A graph is \emph{hamiltonian-connected} if every pair of vertices can be connected by a hamiltonian path, and it is \emph{hamiltonian} if it contains a hamiltonian cycle. We construct families of non-hamiltonian graphs for which the ratio…

We conduct a quantitative analysis of how many random edges need to be added to a base graph $H$ in order to significantly increase natural minor-monotone graph parameters of the resulting graph $R$. Specifically, we show that if $R$ is…

What is the minimum number of edges that have to be added to the random graph $G=G_{n,0.5}$ in order to increase its chromatic number $\chi=\chi(G)$ by one percent ? One possibility is to add all missing edges on a set of $1.01 \chi$…

Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph obtained by adding chords to a cycle of length $n$. Markstr\"{o}m asked for the maximum number of edges in $G$ if there are no two cycles in $G$ with the same length. A simple counting argument shows that such…

Let $X_1,..., X_n$ be independent, uniformly random points from $[0,1]^2$. We prove that if we add edges between these points one by one by order of increasing edge length then, with probability tending to 1 as the number of points $n$…

We study the Hamiltonicity of the following model of a random graph. Suppose that we partition [n] into V_1,V_2,...,V_k and add edge {x,y} to our graph with probability p if there exists i such that x,y\in V_i. Otherwise, we add the edge…

A perfect $H$-tiling in a graph $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of a graph $H$ in $G$ that together cover all the vertices in $G$. In this paper we investigate perfect $H$-tilings in a random graph model introduced by Bohman,…
