We consider the Directed Spanning Forest (DSF) constructed as follows: given a Poisson point process N on the plane, the ancestor of each point is the nearest vertex of N having a strictly larger abscissa. We prove that the DSF is actually…

For $p\in[1,\infty]$, the $\ell^p$ directed spanning forest (DSF) of dimension $d\geq 2$ is an oriented random geometric graph whose vertex set is given by a homogeneous Poisson point process $\mathcal N$ on $\mathbb R^d$ and whose edges…

Stochastic networks based on random point sets as nodes have attracted considerable interest in many applications, particularly in communication networks, including wireless sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks and so on. The study of…

The Brownian web can be roughly described as a family of coalescing one-dimensional Brownian motions starting at all times in $\R$ and at all points of $\R$. It was introduced by Arratia; a variant was then studied by Toth and Werner;…

We consider a variant of the radial spanning tree introduced by Baccelli and Bordenave. Like the original model, our model is a tree rooted at the origin, built on the realization of a planar Poisson point process. Unlike it, the paths of…

Consider the $d$ dimensional lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ where each vertex is open or closed with probability $p$ or $1-p$ respectively. An open vertex $\mathbb{u} := (\mathbb{u}(1), \mathbb{u}(2),...,\mathbb{u}(d))$ is connected by an edge to…

We consider Directed Steiner Forest (DSF), a fundamental problem in network design. The input to DSF is a directed edge-weighted graph $G = (V, E)$ and a collection of vertex pairs $\{(s_i, t_i)\}_{i \in [k]}$. The goal is to find a minimum…

Several authors have studied convergence in distribution to the Brownian web under diffusive scaling of Markovian random walks. In a paper by R. Roy, K. Saha and A. Sarkar, convergence to the Brownian web is proved for a system of…

In this article we investigate the Uniform Spanning Forest ($\mathsf{USF}$) in the nearest-neighbour integer lattice $\mathbf{Z}^{d+1} = \mathbf{Z}\times \mathbf{Z}^d$ with an assignment of conductances that makes the underlying (Network)…

We analyze a class of spatial random spanning trees built on a realization of a homogeneous Poisson point process of the plane. This tree has a simple radial structure with the origin as its root. We first use stochastic geometry arguments…

The Radial Spanning Tree (RST) in dimension $d\geq2$ is a random geometric graph constructed on a homogeneous Poisson point process $\mathcal N$ in $\mathbb R^d$ augmented by the origin, with edges connecting each $x\in\mathcal N$ to the…

Study of random networks generally requires the nodes to be independently and uniformly distributed such as a Poisson point process. In this work, we venture beyond this standard paradigm and investigate a stochastic forest obtained from a…

The uniform spanning forest measure ($\mathsf{USF}$) on a locally finite, infinite connected graph $G$ with conductance $c$ is defined as a weak limit of uniform spanning tree measure on finite subgraphs. Depending on the underlying graph…

For the directed landscape, the putative universal space-time scaling limit object in the (1+1) dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class, consider the geodesic tree -- the tree formed by the coalescing semi-infinite…

The Brownian web (BW), which developed from the work of Arratia and then T\'{o}th and Werner, is a random collection of paths (with specified starting points) in one plus one dimensional space-time that arises as the scaling limit of the…

A directed network connecting a set A to a set B is a digraph containing an a-b path for each a in A and b in B. Vertices in the directed network not in A or B are called Steiner points. We show that in a finitely compact metric space in…

In this last decade, an important stochastic model emerged: the Brownian map. It is the limit of various models of random combinatorial maps after rescaling: it is a random metric space with Hausdorff dimension 4, almost surely homeomorphic…

We study random two-dimensional spanning forests in the plane that can be viewed both in the discrete case and in their appropriately taken scaling limits as a uniformly chosen spanning tree with some Poissonian deletion of edges or points.…

An algorithm is proposed for constructing directed spanning forests of the minimum weight, in which the maximum possible degree of affinity between the minimum forests is preserved when the number of trees changes. The correctness of the…
