For a fixed graph G, a maximal independent set is an independent set that is not a proper subset of any other independent set. P. Erd\"os, and independently, J. W. Moon and L. Moser, and R. E. Miller and D. E. Muller, determined the maximum…
In this paper, we develop efficient exact and approximate algorithms for computing a maximum independent set in random graphs. In a random graph $G$, each pair of vertices are joined by an edge with a probability $p$, where $p$ is a…
Recently, variants of many classical extremal theorems have been proved in the random environment. We, complementing existing results, extend the Erd\H{o}s-Gallai Theorem in random graphs. In particular, we determine, up to a constant…
We study the "rank 1 case" of the inhomogeneous random graph model. In the subcritical case we derive an exact formula for the asymptotic size of the largest connected component scaled to log n. This result is new, it completes the…
We develop a new algorithmic technique that allows to transfer some constant time approximation algorithms for general graphs into random order streaming algorithms. We illustrate our technique by proving that in random order streams with…
The metric dimension of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of vertices in a subset $S$ of the vertex set of $G$ such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in $S$. In this paper we investigate the…
Random K-out graphs are garnering interest in designing distributed systems including secure sensor networks, anonymous crypto-currency networks, and differentially-private decentralized learning. In these security-critical applications, it…
Let $H$ be a fixed graph on $v$ vertices. For an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $n$ divisible by $v$, an $H$-{\em factor} of $G$ is a collection of $n/v$ copies of $H$ whose vertex sets partition $V(G)$. In this paper we consider the threshold…
In 1991, Bollob\'{a}s and Frieze showed that the threshold for $G_{n,p}$ to contain a spanning maximal planar subgraph is very close to $p = n^{-1/3}$. In this paper, we compute similar threshold ranges for $G_{n,p}$ to contain a maximal…
A classical result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi states that every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(1/2+ o(1))n$ contains every $n$-vertex tree with maximum degree $O(n/\log{n})$ as a subgraph, and the bounds on…
In this paper we study a random graph with $N$ nodes, where node $j$ has degree $D_j$ and $\{D_j\}_{j=1}^N$ are i.i.d. with $\prob(D_j\leq x)=F(x)$. We assume that $1-F(x)\leq c x^{-\tau+1}$ for some $\tau>3$ and some constant $c>0$. This…
In a recent work of the authors and Kim, we derived a complete description of the largest component of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,p)$ as it emerges from the critical window, i.e. for $p = (1+\epsilon)/n$ where $\epsilon^3 n…
The largest components of the critical Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph, $G(n,p)$ with $p=1/n$, have size of order $n^{2/3}$ with high probability. We give detailed asymptotics for the probability that there is an unusually large component, i.e. of…
We provide sufficient conditions for a regular graph $G$ of growing degree $d$, guaranteeing a phase transition in its random subgraph $G_p$ similar to that of $G(n,p)$ when $p\cdot d\approx 1$. These conditions capture several well-studied…
We introduce a very general model of an inhomogenous random graph with independence between the edges, which scales so that the number of edges is linear in the number of vertices. This scaling corresponds to the p=c/n scaling for G(n,p)…
The unit ball random geometric graph $G=G^d_p(\lambda,n)$ has as its vertices $n$ points distributed independently and uniformly in the $d$-dimensional unit ball, with two vertices adjacent if and only if their $l_p$-distance is at most…
In this paper we explore maximal deviations of large random structures from their typical behavior. We introduce a model for a high-dimensional random graph process and ask analogous questions to those of Vapnik and Chervonenkis for…
For a graph $G$, we denote by $\alpha(G)$ the size of a maximum independent set and by $\omega(G)$ the size of a maximum clique in $G$. Our paper lies on the edge of two lines of research, related to $\alpha$ and $\omega$, respectively. One…
Random geometric graphs result from taking $n$ uniformly distributed points in the unit cube, $[0,1]^d$, and connecting two points if their Euclidean distance is at most $r$, for some prescribed $r$. We show that monotone properties for…
The problem of graphical model selection is to correctly estimate the graph structure of a Markov random field given samples from the underlying distribution. We analyze the information-theoretic limitations of the problem of graph…
