Let $G$ be a graph obtained as the union of some $n$-vertex graph $H_n$ with minimum degree $\delta(H_n)\geq\alpha n$ and a $d$-dimensional random geometric graph $G^d(n,r)$. We investigate under which conditions for $r$ the graph $G$ will…

Constructing a spanning tree of a graph is one of the most basic tasks in graph theory. We consider this problem in the setting of local algorithms: one wants to quickly determine whether a given edge $e$ is in a specific spanning tree,…

Let C(G) denote the set of lengths of cycles in a graph G. In the first part of this paper, we study the minimum possible value of |C(G)| over all graphs G of average degree d and girth g. Erdos conjectured that |C(G)| =\Omega(d^{\lfloor…

Consider a random graph $G$ of size $N$ constructed according to a \textit{graphon} $w \, : \, [0,1]^{2} \mapsto [0,1]$ as follows. First embed $N$ vertices $V = \{v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_N\}$ into the interval $[0,1]$, then for each $i < j$…

Let $n$ and $r$ be integers with $n-2\ge r\ge 3$. We prove that any $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ on $n$ vertices with spectral radius $\lambda(\mathcal{H}) > \binom{n-2}{r-1}$ must contain a Hamiltonian Berge cycle unless…

This is the fourth in a series of articles devoted to showing that a typical covering map of large degree to a fixed, regular graph has its new adjacency eigenvalues within the bound conjectured by Alon for random regular graphs. In this…

In 2021, Gupta and Suzumura proposed a novel algorithm for enumerating all bounded-length simple cycles in directed graphs. In this work, we present concrete examples demonstrating that the proposed algorithm fails to enumerate certain…

A famous result by R\"odl, Ruci\'nski, and Szemer\'edi guarantees a (tight) Hamilton cycle in $k$-uniform hypergraphs $H$ on $n$ vertices with minimum $(k-1)$-degree $\delta_{k-1}(H)\geq (1/2+o(1))n$, thereby extending Dirac's result from…

The spectral excess theorem for distance-regular graphs states that a regular (connected) graph is distance-regular if and only if its spectral-excess equals its average excess. A bipartite graph is distance-biregular when it is…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is called $d$-rigid if, for a generic embedding of its vertices in $\mathbb{R}^d$, every edge-length preserving continuous motion of the vertices preserves the distances between all pairs of non-adjacent vertices as well.…

The spectral density of random graphs with topological constraints is analysed using the replica method. We consider graph ensembles featuring generalised degree-degree correlations, as well as those with a community structure. In each case…

The spectral and localization properties of heterogeneous random graphs are determined by the resolvent distributional equations, which have so far resisted an analytic treatment. We solve analytically the resolvent equations of random…

The graph removal lemma is a fundamental result in extremal graph theory which says that for every fixed graph $H$ and $\varepsilon > 0$, if an $n$-vertex graph $G$ contains $\varepsilon n^2$ edge-disjoint copies of $H$ then $G$ contains…

Random walks on expanders play a crucial role in Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithms, derandomization, graph theory, and distributed computing. A desirable property is that they are rapidly mixing, which is equivalent to having a spectral…
