We study the graph structure of large random dissections of polygons sampled according to Boltzmann weights, which encompasses the case of uniform dissections or uniform $p$-angulations. As their number of vertices $n$ goes to infinity, we…

The broadcasting models on a d-ary tree T arise in many contexts such as biology, information theory, statistical physics and computer science. We consider the k-colouring model, i.e. the root of T is assigned an arbitrary colour and,…

We consider a Galton-Watson tree where each node is marked independently of each others with a probability depending on its outdegree. We give a complete picture of the local convergence of critical or sub-critical marked Galton-Watson…

Random planar maps are considered in the physics literature as the discrete counterpart of random surfaces. It is conjectured that properly rescaled random planar maps, when conditioned to have a large number of faces, should converge to a…

We consider a sequence of complex rational maps (f_n) of a fixed degree d at least 2. Building on the seminal work of Kiwi, we introduce the notion of generalized rescaling limits. These are rational maps possibly defined over a…

In this paper, we consider the random plane forest uniformly drawn from all possible plane forests with a given degree sequence. Under suitable conditions on the degree sequences, we consider the limit of a sequence of such forests with the…

We prove a lower bound on the number of spanning two-forests in a graph, in terms of the number of vertices, edges, and spanning trees. This implies an upper bound on the average cut size of a random two-forest. The main tool is an identity…

We show that for many models of random trees, the independence number divided by the size converges almost surely to a constant as the size grows to infinity; the trees that we consider include random recursive trees, binary and $m$-ary…

We prove that the uniform unlabelled unrooted tree with n vertices and vertex degrees in a fixed set converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense after a suitable rescaling to the Brownian continuum random tree. This proves a conjecture by…

We prove some asymptotic results for the radius and the profile of large random rooted planar maps with faces of arbitrary degrees. Using a bijection due to Bouttier, Di Francesco and Guitter between rooted planar maps and certain four-type…

We introduce a process where a connected rooted multigraph evolves by splitting events on its vertices, occurring randomly in continuous time. When a vertex splits, its incoming edges are randomly assigned between its offspring and a…
