Motivated by the Beck-Fiala conjecture, we study the discrepancy problem in two related models of random hypergraphs on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. In the first (edge-independent) model, a random hypergraph $H_1$ is constructed by fixing a…

Let $G(n,\, M)$ be the uniform random graph with $n$ vertices and $M$ edges. Let $B_n$ be the maximum block-size of $G(n,\, M)$ or the maximum size of its maximal $2$-connected induced subgraphs. We determine the expectation of $B_n$ near…

We study a variant of the Erd\H{o}s Matching Problem in random hypergraphs. Let $\mathcal{K}_p(n,k)$ denote the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices where each possible edge is included with probability $p$. We…

We study random subgraphs of an arbitrary finite connected transitive graph $\mathbb G$ obtained by independently deleting edges with probability $1-p$. Let $V$ be the number of vertices in $\mathbb G$, and let $\Omega$ be their degree. We…

In the binomial random graph $\mathcal{G}(n,p)$, when $p$ changes from $(1-\varepsilon)/n$ (subcritical case) to $1/n$ and then to $(1+\varepsilon)/n$ (supercritical case) for $\varepsilon>0$, with high probability the order of the largest…

In this work, we resolve the query complexity of global minimum cut problem for a graph by designing a randomized algorithm for approximating the size of minimum cut in a graph, where the graph can be accessed through local queries like…

Let $u_k(G,p)$ be the maximum over all $k$-vertex graphs $F$ of by how much the number of induced copies of $F$ in $G$ differs from its expectation in the binomial random graph with the same number of vertices as $G$ and with edge…

We study the model $G_\alpha\cup G(n,p)$ of randomly perturbed dense graphs, where $G_\alpha$ is any $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $\alpha n$ and $G(n,p)$ is the binomial random graph. We introduce a general approach for…

We investigate the asymptotic version of the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem for the random $k$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}^k(n,p)$. For $2 \leq k(n) \leq n/2$, let $N=\binom{n}k$ and $D=\binom{n-k}k$. We show that with probability tending to…

Denote by an $\ell$-component a connected $b$-uniform hypergraph with $k$ edges and $k(b-1) - \ell$ vertices. We prove that the expected number of creations of $\ell$-component during a random hypergraph process tends to 1 as $\ell$ and $b$…

We study random subgraphs of the $n$-cube $\{0,1\}^n$, where nearest-neighbor edges are occupied with probability $p$. Let $p_c(n)$ be the value of $p$ for which the expected cluster size of a fixed vertex attains the value $\lambda…

We consider the next greedy randomized process for generating maximal H-free graphs: Given a fixed graph H and an integer n, start by taking a uniformly random permutation of the edges of the complete n-vertex graph. Then, construct an…

The first degree-based entropy of a graph is the Shannon entropy of its degree sequence normalized by the degree sum. Its correct interpretation as a measure of uniformity of the degree sequence requires the determination of its extremal…

Exponential random graph models have attracted significant research attention over the past decades. These models are maximum-entropy ensembles under the constraints that the expected values of a set of graph observables are equal to given…

The random intersection graph model $\mathcal G(n,m,p)$ is considered. Due to substantial edge dependencies, studying even fundamental statistics such as the subgraph count is significantly more challenging than in the classical binomial…

We consider the following dynamics on a connected graph $(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices. Given $p>1$ and an initial opinion profile $f_0:V \to [0,1]$, at each integer step $t \ge 1$ a uniformly random vertex $v=v_t$ is selected, and the opinion…

The relaxed maximum entropy problem is concerned with finding a probability distribution on a finite set that minimizes the relative entropy to a given prior distribution, while satisfying relaxed max-norm constraints with respect to 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,…

We study random subgraphs of the 2-dimensional Hamming graph H(2,n), which is the Cartesian product of two complete graphs on $n$ vertices. Let $p$ be the edge probability, and write $p=\frac{1+\vep}{2(n-1)}$ for some $\vep\in \R$. In Borgs…

A celebrated conjecture of Tuza states that in any finite graph the minimum size of a cover of triangles by edges is at most twice the maximum size of a set of edge-disjoint triangles. For an $r$-uniform hypergraph ($r$-graph) $G$, let…
