We consider a dynamic Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph (ERRG) on $n$ vertices in which each edge switches on at rate $\lambda$ and switches off at rate $\mu$, independently of other edges. The focus is on the analysis of the evolution of the…
We prove a large deviation principle for the greedy exploration of configuration models, building on a time-discretized version of the method proposed by Bermolen et al. and Brightwell et al. for jointly constructing a random graph from a…
Distributions of the size of the largest component, in particular the large-deviation tail, are studied numerically for two graph ensembles, for Erdoes-Renyi random graphs with finite connectivity and for two-dimensional bond percolation.…
Consider a population of individuals belonging to an infinity number of types, and assume that type proportions follow the two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution. A sample of size n is selected from the population. The total number of…
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…
In this paper we study the component structure of random graphs with independence between the edges. Under mild assumptions, we determine whether there is a giant component, and find its asymptotic size when it exists. We assume that the…

The micro-structure of the giant component of the Erd{\H o}s-R\'enyi network and other configuration model networks is analyzed using generating function methods. While configuration model networks are uncorrelated, the giant component…

We analyze the component evolution in inhomogeneous random intersection graphs when the average degree is close to 1. As the average degree increases, the size of the largest component in the random intersection graph goes through a phase…
We prove large and moderate deviation principles for the distribution of an empirical mean conditioned by the value of the sum of discrete i.i.d. random variables. Some applications for combinatoric problems are discussed.
Importance sampling has become an important tool for the computation of tail-based risk measures. Since such quantities are often determined mainly by rare events standard Monte Carlo can be inefficient and importance sampling provides a…
We establish central and local limit theorems for the number of vertices in the largest component of a random $d$-uniform hypergraph $\hnp$ with edge probability $p=c/\binnd$, where $(d-1)^{-1}+\eps<c<\infty$. The proof relies on a new,…
In this paper, we derive the moderate deviation principle for stationary sequences of bounded random variables with values in a Hilbert space. The conditions obtained are expressed in terms of martingale-type conditions. The main tools are…
We apply a PDE-based method to deduce the critical time and the size of the giant component of the ``triangle percolation'' on the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph process investigated by Palla, Der\'enyi and Vicsek
In this paper, we study large and moderate deviation principles for stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) on metric graphs and their associated multiscale models via the weak convergence approach, providing a refined…
We consider a stable but nearly unstable autoregressive process of any order. The bridge between stability and instability is expressed by a time-varying companion matrix $A_{n}$ with spectral radius $\rho(A_{n}) < 1$ satisfying…
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…
For any fixed simple graph $H=(V,E)$ and any fixed $u>0$, we establish the leading order of the exponential rate function for the probability that the number of copies of $H$ in the Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi graph $G(n,p)$ exceeds its expectation…
In this paper we introduce a new notion of convergence of sparse graphs which we call Large Deviations or LD-convergence and which is based on the theory of large deviations. The notion is introduced by "decorating" the nodes of the graph…
