We prove tail estimates for variables $\sum_i f(X_i)$, where $(X_i)_i$ is the trajectory of a random walk on an undirected graph (or, equivalently, a reversible Markov chain). The estimates are in terms of the maximum of the function $f$,…

A graph with a trivial automorphism group is said to be rigid. Wright proved that for $\frac{\log n}{n}+\omega(\frac 1n)\leq p\leq \frac 12$ a random graph $G\in G(n,p)$ is rigid whp. It is not hard to see that this lower bound is sharp and…

Random matrices acting on structured sets play a fundamental role in high-dimensional geometry, compressed sensing, and randomized algorithms. Existing results primarily focus on subgaussian models, when random matrices act as…

We study heavy-tailed Hermitian random matrices that are unitarily invariant. The invariance implies that the eigenvalue and eigenvector statistics are decoupled. The motivating question has been whether a freely stable random matrix has…

In this paper we focus on the problem of finding (small) subhypergraphs in a (large) hypergraph. We use this problem to illustrate that reducing hypergraph problems to graph problems by working with the 2-section is not always a reasonable…

For first passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. bounded edge weights, we consider the upper tail large deviation event; i.e., the rare situation where the first passage time between two points at distance $n$, is macroscopically…

Denote by $\mathcal{H}_k (n,p)$ the random $k$-graph in which each $k$-subset of $\{1... n\}$ is present with probability $p$, independent of other choices. More or less answering a question of Balogh, Bohman and Mubayi, we show: there is a…

We study the spectral gap of the Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph through the connectivity threshold. In particular, we show that for any fixed $\delta > 0$ if $$p \ge \frac{(1/2 + \delta) \log n}{n},$$ then the normalized graph Laplacian of…

To accelerate the training of graph convolutional networks (GCNs) on real-world large-scale sparse graphs, downsampling methods are commonly employed as a preprocessing step. However, the effects of graph sparsity and topological structure…

Given a symmetric $n\times n$ matrix $P$ with $0 \le P(u, v)\le 1$, we define a random graph $G_{n, P}$ on $[n]$ by independently including any edge $\{u, v\}$ with probability $P(u, v)$. For $k\ge 1$ let $\mathcal{A}_k$ be the property of…

Using the replica method, we develop an analytical approach to compute the characteristic function for the probability $\mathcal{P}_N(K,\lambda)$ that a large $N \times N$ adjacency matrix of sparse random graphs has $K$ eigenvalues below a…

We propose and investigate a unifying class of sparse random graph models, based on a hidden coloring of edge-vertex incidences, extending an existing approach, Random graphs with a given degree distribution, in a way that admits a…

We study the problem of detecting the edge correlation between two random graphs with $n$ unlabeled nodes. This is formalized as a hypothesis testing problem, where under the null hypothesis, the two graphs are independently generated;…

A graph $G$ is Ramsey for a graph $H$ if every 2-colouring of the edges of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. We consider the following question: if $H$ has bounded treewidth, is there a `sparse' graph $G$ that is Ramsey for $H$? Two…

The exact expression for the probability density $p_{_N}(x)$ for sums of a finite number $N$ of random independent terms is obtained. It is shown that the very tail of $p_{_N}(x)$ has a Gaussian form if and only if all the random terms are…

We study the optimal estimation of probability matrices of random graph models generated from graphons. This problem has been extensively studied in the case of step-graphons and H\"older smooth graphons. In this work, we characterize the…

Let $\{\xi_n\}$ be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables. In this paper we study the comparison for two upper tail probabilities $\mathbb{P}\{\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n|\xi_n|^p\geq r\}$ and…

We study the greedy independent set algorithm on sparse Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs ${\mathcal G}(n,c/n)$. This range of $p$ is of interest due to the threshold at $c=e$, beyond which it appears that greedy algorithms are affected by a…

Link prediction systems (e.g. recommender systems) typically use graph topology as one of their main sources of information. However, automorphisms and related properties of graphs beget inherent limits in predictability. We calculate hard…

In the inhomogeneous random graph model, each vertex $i\in\{1,\ldots,n\}$ is assigned a weight $W_i\sim\text{Unif}(0,1)$, and an edge between any two vertices $i,j$ is present with probability $k(W_i,W_j)/\lambda_n\in[0,1]$, where $k$ is a…
