Asymptotic behaviour of maximum sizes of induced trees and forests has been studied extensively in last decades, though the overall picture is far from being complete. In this paper, we close several significant gaps: 1) We prove $2$-point…

Let $T(G)$ be the size of the largest induced tree of $G$, and let $G_{n,p}$ be the binomial random graph. Kamaldinov, Skorkin, and Zhukovskii proved that $T(G_{n,p})$ equals one of two consecutive values with high probability if $p$ is…

Kamaldinov, Skorkin, and Zhukovskii proved that the maximum size of an induced subtree in the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ is concentrated at two consecutive points, whenever $p\in(0,1)$ is a constant. Using improved bounds on the second…

We prove that with high probability maximum sizes of induced forests in dense binomial random graphs are concentrated in two consecutive values.

In this paper, we address the problem of packing large trees in $G_{n,p}$. In particular, we prove the following result. Suppose that $T_1, \dotsc, T_N$ are $n$-vertex trees, each of which has maximum degree at most $(np)^{1/6} / (\log…

The celebrated Frieze's result about the independence number of $G(n,p)$ states that it is concentrated in an interval of size $o(1/p)$ for all $C_{\varepsilon}/n<p=o(1)$. We show concentration in an interval of size $o(1/p)$ for the…

Given a large graph $H$, does the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ contain a copy of $H$ as an induced subgraph with high probability? This classical question has been studied extensively for various graphs $H$, going back to the study of the…

We prove that a.a.s. the maximum size of an induced subtree of the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ is concentrated in 2 consecutive points. We also prove that, given a non-negative integer-valued function $t(k)<\varepsilon k^2$, under a…

We prove that if T is a tree on n vertices wih maximum degree D and the edge probability p(n) satisfies: np>c*max{D*logn,n^{\epsilon}} for some constant \epsilon>0, then with high probability the random graph G(n,p) contains a copy of T.…

Consider the problem of determining the maximal induced subgraph in a random $d$-regular graph such that its components remain bounded as the size of the graph becomes arbitrarily large. We show, for asymptotically large $d$, that any such…

We show that for any fixed dense graph G and bounded-degree tree T on the same number of vertices, a modest random perturbation of G will typically contain a copy of T . This combines the viewpoints of the well-studied problems of embedding…

In this paper we show how to find nearly optimal embeddings of large trees in several natural classes of graphs. The size of the tree T can be as large as a constant fraction of the size of the graph G, and the maximum degree of T can be…

An induced forest of a graph G is an acyclic induced subgraph of G. The present paper is devoted to the analysis of a simple randomised algorithm that grows an induced forest in a regular graph. The expected size of the forest it outputs…

In 1989, Zehavi and Itai conjectured that every $k$-connected graph contains $k$ independent spanning trees rooted at any prescribed vertex $r$. That is, for each vertex $v$, the unique $r$-$v$ paths within these $k$ spanning trees are…

The inducibility of a graph $H$ measures the maximum number of induced copies of $H$ a large graph $G$ can have. Generalizing this notion, we study how many induced subgraphs of fixed order $k$ and size $\ell$ a large graph $G$ on $n$…

We prove that for all $0\leq t\leq k$ and $d\geq 2k$, every graph $G$ with treewidth at most $k$ has a `large' induced subgraph $H$, where $H$ has treewidth at most $t$ and every vertex in $H$ has degree at most $d$ in $G$. The order of $H$…

For a graph $G$, let $a(G)$ denote the maximum size of a subset of vertices that induces a forest. We prove the following. 1. Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$, maximum degree $\Delta>0$ and maximum clique size $\omega$. Then \[ a(G) \geq…
