Intrigued by the capacity of random networks, we start by proving a max-flow min-cut theorem that is applicable to any random graph obeying a suitably defined independence-in-cut property. We then show that this property is satisfied by…

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…

We study the low-energy electronic transport across periodic extended defects in graphene. In the continuum low-energy limit, such defects act as infinitesimally thin stripes separating two regions where Dirac Hamiltonian governs the…

We prove tight network topology dependent bounds on the round complexity of computing well studied $k$-party functions such as set disjointness and element distinctness. Unlike the usual case in the CONGEST model in distributed computing,…

We discuss how various models of scale-free complex networks approach their limiting properties when the size N of the network grows. We focus mainly on equilibrated networks and their finite-size degree distributions. Our results show that…

It has recently been shown that the average energy required to control a subset of nodes in a complex network scales exponentially with the cardinality of the subset. While the mean scales exponentially, the variance of the control energy…

We study Gamma-convergence of graph based Ginzburg-Landau functionals, both the limit for zero diffusive interface parameter epsilon->0 and the limit for infinite nodes in the graph m -> infinity. For general graphs we prove that in the…

Limits of graphs were initiated recently in the two extreme contexts of dense and bounded degree graphs. This led to elegant limiting structures called graphons and graphings. These approach have been unified and generalized by authors in a…

We present a statistical mechanics approach for the description of complex networks. We first define an energy and an entropy associated to a degree distribution which have a geometrical interpretation. Next we evaluate the distribution…

We give identities for the voltage and resistance functions on a metrized graph to show how these functions behave under any edge deletion/contraction and the identification of any two vertices. This leads to explicit versions of Rayleigh's…

Convexification techniques have gained increasing interest over the past decades. In this work, we apply a recently developed convexification technique for fractional programs by He, Liu and Tawarmalani (2024) to the problem of determining…

This paper investigates the energy complexity of distributed graph problems in multi-hop radio networks, where the energy cost of an algorithm is measured by the maximum number of awake rounds of a vertex. Recent works revealed that some…

We provide a framework for modeling social network formation through conditional multinomial logit models from discrete choice and random utility theory, in which each new edge is viewed as a "choice" made by a node to connect to another…
