A bi-hole of size $t$ in a bipartite graph $G$ is a copy of $K_{t,t}$ in the bipartite complement of $G$. Given an $n \times n$ bipartite graph $G$, let $\beta(G)$ be the largest $k$ for which $G$ has a bi-hole of size $k$. We prove that \[…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, let $\tau(G)$ denote the minimum number of pairwise edge disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ so that each edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one of them. It is easy to see that for every graph $G$, $\tau(G) \leq…

We investigate Ramsey numbers of bounded degree graphs and provide an interpolation between known results on the Ramsey numbers of general bounded degree graphs and bounded degree graphs of small bandwidth. Our main theorem implies that…

Consider an infinite planar graph with uniform polynomial growth of degree d > 2. Many examples of such graphs exhibit similar geometric and spectral properties, and it has been conjectured that this is necessary. We present a family of…

For the size of the largest component in a supercritical random geometric graph, this paper estimates its expectation which tends to a polynomial on a rate of exponential decay, and sharpens its asymptotic result with a central limit…

Given a graph $G$, its genus polynomial is $\Gamma_G(x) = \sum_{k\geq 0} g_k(G)x^k$, where $g_k(G)$ is the number of 2-cell embeddings of $G$ in an orientable surface of genus $k$. The Log-Concavity Genus Distribution (LCGD) Conjecture…

We study the problem of estimating the size of independent sets in a graph $G$ defined by a stream of edges. Our approach relies on the Caro-Wei bound, which expresses the desired quantity in terms of a sum over nodes of the reciprocal of…

A $\textit{sigma partitioning}$ of a graph $G$ is a partition of the vertices into sets $P_1, \ldots, P_k$ such that for every two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$ there is an index $i$ such that $u$ and $v$ have different numbers of neighbors…

We investigate the number of maximal cliques, i.e., cliques that are not contained in any larger clique, in three network models: Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs, inhomogeneous random graphs (also called Chung-Lu graphs), and geometric…

In this paper, we study cliques and chromatic number of inhomogenous random graphs where the individual edge probabilities could be arbitrarily low. We use a recursive method to obtain estimates on the maximum clique size under a mild…

In previous work, the authors established various bounds for the dimensions of degree $n$ cohomology and $\Ext$-groups, for irreducible modules of semisimple algebraic groups $G$ (in positive characteristic $p$) and (Lusztig) quantum groups…

Geometric grid classes of permutations have proven to be key in investigations of classical permutation pattern classes. By considering the representation of gridded permutations as words in a trace monoid, we prove that every geometric…

Consider a connected graph $G$, and assume that every edge fails independently with probability $q$. The {\em (all-terminal) reliability polynomial} is the probability in $q$ that the spanning connected subgraph of operational edges is…

To every finite metric space $X$, including all connected unweighted graphs with the minimum edge-distance metric, we attach an invariant that we call its blowup-polynomial $p_X(\{ n_x : x \in X \})$. This is obtained from the blowup…

Let $G$ be a graph with an adjacent matrix $A(G)$. The multiplicity of an arbitrary eigenvalue $\lambda$ of $A(G)$ is denoted by $m_\lambda(G)$. In \cite{Wong}, the author apply the Pater-Wiener Theorem to prove that if the diameter of $T$…

We prove that for all values of the edge probability p(n) the largest eigenvalue of a random graph G(n,p) satisfies almost surely: \lambda_1(G)=(1+o(1))max{\sqrt{\Delta},np}, where \Delta is a maximal degree of G, and the o(1) term tends to…

Let $(G,\rho)$ be a stationary random graph, and use $B^G_{\rho}(r)$ to denote the ball of radius $r$ about $\rho$ in $G$. Suppose that $(G,\rho)$ has annealed polynomial growth, in the sense that $\mathbb{E}[|B^G_{\rho}(r)|] \leq O(r^k)$…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with $n$ vertices and let $$C(G;x)=\sum_{k=0}^n(-1)^{n-k}c(G,k)x^k$$ denote the Laplacian characteristic polynomial of $G$. Then if the size $|E(G)|$ is large compared to the maximum degree $\Delta(G)$, Laplacian…

We analyze a minimal model of a growing network. At each time step, a new vertex is added; then, with probability delta, two vertices are chosen uniformly at random and joined by an undirected edge. This process is repeated for t time…
