Expander graphs in general, and Ramanujan graphs in particular, have been of great interest in the last three decades with many applications in computer science, combinatorics and even pure mathematics. In these notes we describe various…

Random recursive hypergraphs grow by adding, at each step, a vertex and an edge formed by joining the new vertex to a randomly chosen existing edge. The model is parameter-free, and several characteristics of emerging hypergraphs admit neat…

We study gaps in the spectra of the adjacency matrices of large finite cubic graphs. It is known that the gap intervals $(2 \sqrt{2},3)$ and $[-3,-2)$ achieved in cubic Ramanujan graphs and line graphs are maximal. We give constraints on…

We prove that there exist bipartite Ramanujan graphs of every degree and every number of vertices. The proof is based on analyzing the expected characteristic polynomial of a union of random perfect matchings, and involves three…

In this article, we study branching random walks on graphs modeling division-mutation processes inspired by adaptive immunity. We apply the theory of expander graphs on mutation rules in evolutionary processes and obtain estimates for the…

For a unimodular random graph $(G,\rho)$, we consider deformations of its intrinsic path metric by a (random) weighting of its vertices. This leads to the notion of the conformal growth exponent of $(G,\rho)$, which is the best asymptotic…

We prove that for each $d \geq 3$ the set of all limit points of the second largest eigenvalue of growing sequences of $d$-regular graphs is $[2\sqrt{d-1},d]$. A similar argument shows that the set of all limit points of the smallest…

The purpose of this note is to point out that the theory of expander graphs leads to an interesting test whether $n$ real numbers $x_1, \dots, x_n$ could be $n$ independent samples of a random variable. To any distinct, real numbers $x_1,…

For the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph G(n,p), we give a precise asymptotic formula for the size of a largest vertex subset in G(n,p) that induces a subgraph with average degree at most t, provided that p = p(n) is not too small and t =…

We are interested in the cycles obtained by slicing at all heights random Boltzmann triangulations with a simple boundary. We establish a functional invariance principle for the lengths of these cycles, appropriately rescaled, as the size…

We study random graphs with latent geometric structure, where the probability of each edge depends on the underlying random positions corresponding to the two endpoints. We focus on the setting where this conditional probability is a…

A random geometric graph $G(\mathcal{X}_n, r_n)$ is formed by taking a binomial process $\mathcal{X}_n$ as the set of vertices and joining any two distinct points with an edge if they lie within distance $r_n$ of each other. We investigate…

We identify the scaling limit of random intersection graphs inside their critical windows. The limit graphs vary according to the clustering regimes, and coincide with the continuum Erdos--Renyi graph in two out of the three regimes. Our…

Random walks on bounded degree expander graphs have numerous applications, both in theoretical and practical computational problems. A key property of these walks is that they converge rapidly to their stationary distribution. In this work…
