We consider random graphs with uniformly bounded edges on a Poisson point process conditioned to contain the origin. In particular we focus on the random connection model, the Boolean model and Miller-Abrahams random resistor network with…
Consider the uniform random graph $G(n,M)$ with $n$ vertices and $M$ edges. Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi (1960) conjectured that the limit $$ \lim_{n \to \infty} \Pr\{G(n,\textstyle{n\over 2}) is planar}} $$ exists and is a constant strictly…
Consider the random graph $G({\mathcal P}_{n},r)$ whose vertex set ${\mathcal P}_{n}$ is a Poisson point process of intensity $n$ on $(- \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2}]^d$, $d \geq 2$. Any two vertices $X_i,X_j \in {\mathcal P}_{n}$ are connected…
Random directed graphs $D(n,p)$ undergo a phase transition around the point $p = 1/n$, and the width of the transition window has been known since the works of Luczak and Seierstad. They have established that as $n \to \infty$ when $p = (1…
We develop a limit theory for $1$-cochains of complete graphs with coefficients from a finite abelian group. We prove an analogue of the large deviation principle of Chatterjee and Varadhan for random cochains. We use these new tools to…
In this paper we introduce a new model of random simplicial complexes depending on multiple probability parameters. This model includes the well-known Linial - Meshulam random simplicial complexes and random clique complexes as special…
We find conditions for the connectivity of inhomogeneous random graphs with intermediate density. Our results generalize the classical result for G(n, p), when p = c log n/n. We draw n independent points X_i from a general distribution on a…
The random $2$-dimensional simplicial complex process starts with a complete graph on $n$ vertices, and in every step a new $2$-dimensional face, chosen uniformly at random, is added. We prove that with probability tending to $1$ as…
We analyse the jigsaw percolation process, which may be seen as a measure of whether two graphs on the same vertex set are `jointly connected'. Bollob\'as, Riordan, Slivken and Smith proved that when the two graphs are independent binomial…
In a seminal paper, Erdos and Renyi identified the threshold for connectivity of the random graph G(n,p). In particular, they showed that if p >> log(n)/n then G(n,p) is almost always connected, and if p << log(n)/n then G(n,p) is almost…
For fixed $r\geq 2$, we consider bootstrap percolation with threshold $r$ on the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph ${\cal G}_{n,p}$. We identify a threshold for $p$ above which there is with high probability a set of size $r$ which can infect the…
We study graph-theoretic properties of random $0/1$ polytopes. Specifically, let $Q_p^n \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ be a random subset where each point is included independently with probability $p$, and consider the graph $G_p$ of the polytope…
A soft random graph $G(n,r,p)$ can be obtained from the random geometric graph $G(n,r)$ by keeping every edge in $G(n,r)$ with probability $p$. This random graph is a particular case of the soft random graph model introduced by Penrose, in…
We consider higher-dimensional generalizations of the normalized Laplacian and the adjacency matrix of graphs and study their eigenvalues for the Linial-Meshulam model $X^k(n,p)$ of random $k$-dimensional simplicial complexes on $n$…
We consider a generalised model of a random simplicial complex, which arises from a random hypergraph. Our model is generated by taking the downward-closure of a non-uniform binomial random hypergraph, in which for each $k$, each set of…
Let $S_{n,k}$ denote the random geometric graph obtained by placing points in a square box of area $n$ according to a Poisson process of intensity 1 and joining each point to its $k$ nearest neighbours. Balister, Bollob\'as, Sarkar and…
It is well-known that the $G(n,p)$ model of random graphs undergoes a dramatic change around $p=\frac 1n$. It is here that the random graph is, almost surely, no longer a forest, and here it first acquires a giant (i.e., order $\Omega(n)$)…
The two-terminal reliability, known as the pair connectedness or connectivity function in percolation theory, may actually be expressed as a product of transfer matrices in which the probability of operation of each link and site is exactly…
We consider random right-angled Coxeter groups, $W_{\Gamma}$, whose presentation graph $\Gamma$ is taken to be an Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph, i.e., $\Gamma\sim \mathcal{G}_{n,p}$. We use techniques from probabilistic combinatorics to…
We consider the adjacency operator $A$ of the Linial-Meshulam model $X(d,n,p)$ for random $d-$dimensional simplicial complexes on $n$ vertices, where each $d-$cell is added independently with probability $p\in[0,1]$ to the complete…
