Recent work on the structure of social networks and the internet has focussed attention on graphs with distributions of vertex degree that are significantly different from the Poisson degree distributions that have been widely studied in…
We describe the asymptotic behaviour of large degrees in random hyperbolic graphs, for all values of the curvature parameter $ \alpha$. We prove that, with high probability, the node degrees satisfy the following ordering property: the…
We study the average nearest neighbor degree $a(k)$ of vertices with degree $k$. In many real-world networks with power-law degree distribution $a(k)$ falls off in $k$, a property ascribed to the constraint that any two vertices are…

We introduce and formulate two types of random-walk domination problems in graphs motivated by a number of applications in practice (e.g., item-placement problem in online social network, Ads-placement problem in advertisement networks, and…
What is the underlying mechanism leading to power-law degree distributions of many natural and artificial networks is still at issue. We consider that scale-free networks emerges from self-organizing process, and such a evolving model is…

The network coloring game has been proposed in the literature of social sciences as a model for conflict-resolution circumstances. The players of the game are the vertices of a graph with $n$ vertices and maximum degree $\Delta$. The game…
In this paper we introduce a model of spatial network growth in which nodes are placed at randomly selected locations on a unit square in $\mathbb{R}^2$, forming new connections to old nodes subject to the constraint that edges do not…
In this paper, we study "robust" dominating sets of random graphs that retain the domination property even if a small \emph{deterministic} set of edges are removed. We motivate our study by illustrating with examples from wireless networks…
Many combinatorial optimization problems can be phrased in the language of constraint satisfaction problems. We introduce a graph neural network architecture for solving such optimization problems. The architecture is generic; it works for…
We study online bipartite edge coloring, with nodes on one side of the graph revealed sequentially. The trivial greedy algorithm is $(2-o(1))$-competitive, which is optimal for graphs of low maximum degree, $\Delta=O(\log n)$ [BNMN IPL'92].…
The study of the optimality of low-complexity greedy scheduling techniques in wireless communications networks is a very complex problem. The Local Pooling (LoP) factor provides a single-parameter means of expressing the achievable capacity…
In the field of complex networks, hypergraph models have so far received significantly less attention than graphs. However, many real-life networks feature multiary relations (co-authorship, protein reactions) may therefore be modeled way…
Since Tinhofer proposed the MinGreedy algorithm for maximum cardinality matching in 1984, several experimental studies found the randomized algorithm to perform excellently for various classes of random graphs and benchmark instances. In…
We study distributed algorithms that find a maximal matching in an anonymous, edge-coloured graph. If the edges are properly coloured with $k$ colours, there is a trivial greedy algorithm that finds a maximal matching in $k-1$ synchronous…
We consider a variant of so called power-law random graph. A sequence of expected degrees corresponds to a power-law degree distribution with finite mean and infinite variance. In previous works the asymptotic picture with number of nodes…
Computing the size of maximum independent sets is a NP-hard problem for fixed graphs. Characterizing and designing efficient algorithms to estimate this independence number for random graphs are notoriously difficult and still largely open…
The study of domination in graphs has led to a variety of domination problems studied in the literature. Most of these follow the following general framework: Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, decide if there is a set $S$ of $k$…
Four algorithms giving rise to graceful graphs from a known (non)graceful graph are described. Some necessary conditions for a graph to be highly graceful and critical are given. Finally some conjectures are made on graceful, critical and…
