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…

Let $P(n,M)$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from the family of all labeled planar graphs with $n$ vertices and $M$ edges. In the paper we study the component structure of $P(n,M)$. Combining counting arguments with analytic…

Consider balls $\Lambda_n$ of growing volumes in the $d$-dimensional hierarchical lattice, and place edges independently between each pair of vertices $x\neq y\in\Lambda_n$ with probability $1-\exp(-\beta J(x, y) )$ where $J(x, y) \asymp \|…

We provide a complete description of the giant component of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,p)$ as soon as it emerges from the scaling window, i.e., for $p = (1+\epsilon)/n$ where $\epsilon^3 n \to \infty$ and $\epsilon=o(1)$. Our…

In this paper we study random induced subgraphs of the binary $n$-cube, $Q_2^n$. This random graph is obtained by selecting each $Q_2^n$-vertex with independent probability $\lambda_n$. Using a novel construction of subcomponents we study…

We provide simple proofs describing the behavior of the largest component of the Erdos-Renyi random graph G(n,p) outside of the scaling window, p={1+\eps(n) \over n} where \eps(n) tends to 0, but \eps(n)n^{1/3} tends to \infty.

Let G_n be a sequence of finite transitive graphs with vertex degree d=d(n) and |G_n|=n. Denote by p^t(v,v) the return probability after t steps of the non-backtracking random walk on G_n. We show that if p^t(v,v) has quasi-random…

Consider the random graph on $n$ vertices $1, ..., n$. Each vertex $i$ is assigned a type $X_i$ with $X_1, ..., X_n$ being independent identically distributed as a nonnegative discrete random variable $X$. We assume that ${\bf E}…

We consider the question of the largest possible combinatorial diameter among $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complexes on $n$ vertices, denoted $H_s(n, d)$. Using a probabilistic construction we give a new lower bound on $H_s(n, d)$ that is…

We study the problem of packing arborescences in the random digraph $\mathcal D(n,p)$, where each possible arc is included uniformly at random with probability $p=p(n)$. Let $\lambda(\mathcal D(n,p))$ denote the largest integer $\lambda\geq…
