A good edge-labelling of a simple graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for any ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. Say a graph is good if it admits a good…
Statistical inference for exponential-family models of random graphs with dependent edges is challenging. We stress the importance of additional structure and show that additional structure facilitates statistical inference. A simple…
Consider~\(n\) nodes~\(\{X_i\}_{1 \leq i \leq n}\) independently distributed in the unit square~\(S,\) each according to a distribution~\(f.\) Nodes~\(X_i\) and~\(X_j\) are joined by an edge if the Euclidean distance~\(d(X_i,X_j)\) is less…
We study eigenvalue distribution of the adjacency matrix $A^{(N,p, \alpha)}$ of weighted random bipartite graphs $\Gamma= \Gamma_{N,p}$. We assume that the graphs have $N$ vertices, the ratio of parts is $\frac{\alpha}{1-\alpha}$ and the…
We investigate the behavior of vertex-weighted exponential random graphs. We show that vertex-weighted exponential random graphs with edge weights induced by products of independent vertex weights are approximate mixtures of graphs whose…
We define a statistical ensemble of non-degenerate graphs, i.e. graphs without multiple- and self-connections between nodes. The node degree distribution is arbitrary, but the nodes are assumed to be uncorrelated. This completes our earlier…
We present a simple nonadaptive randomized algorithm that estimates the number of edges in a simple, unweighted, undirected graph, possibly containing isolated vertices, using only degree and random edge queries. For an $n$-vertex graph,…
We investigate the genus $g(n,m)$ of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,m)$, providing a thorough description of how this relates to the function $m=m(n)$, and finding that there is different behaviour depending on which `region' $m$…
We consider random graphs in which the edges are allowed to be dependent. In our model the edge dependence is quite general, we call it $p$-robust random graph. It means that every edge is present with probability at least $p$, regardless…
In this paper, we study rare events in spherical and Gaussian random geometric graphs in high dimensions. In these models, the vertices correspond to points sampled uniformly at random on the $d$ dimensional unit sphere or correspond to $d$…
We consider the number of common edges in two independent random spanning trees of a graph $G$. For complete graphs $K_n$, we give a new proof of the fact, originally obtained by Moon, that the distribution converges to a Poisson…
Let d = (d1, d2, ..., dn) be a vector of non-negative integers with even sum. We prove some basic facts about the structure of a random graph with degree sequence d, including the probability of a given subgraph or induced subgraph.…
An $(\alpha,\beta)$-spanner of a weighted graph $G=(V,E)$, is a subgraph $H$ such that for every $u,v\in V$, $d_G(u,v) \le d_H(u,v)\le\alpha\cdot d_G(u,v)+\beta$. The main parameters of interest for spanners are their size (number of edges)…
In this article, we discuss when one can extend an r-regular graph to an r + 1 regular by adding edges. Different conditions on the num- ber of vertices n and regularity r are developed. We derive an upper bound of r, depending on n, for…
We develop tail estimates for the number of edges in a Chung-Lu random graph with regularly varying weight distribution. Our results show that the most likely way to have an unusually large number of edges is through the presence of one or…
We consider a linearly edge-reinforced random walk on a class of two-dimensional graphs with constant initial weights. The graphs are obtained from $\mathbb{Z}^2$ by replacing every edge by a sufficiently large, but fixed number of edges in…
Across the sciences, the statistical analysis of networks is central to the production of knowledge on relational phenomena. Because of their ability to model the structural generation of networks, exponential random graph models are a…
A theorem of Frieze from 1985 asserts that the total weight of the minimum spanning tree of the complete graph $K_n$ whose edges get independent weights from the distribution $UNIFORM[0,1]$ converges to Ap\'ery's constant in probability, as…
Given an $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph $G$ with non negative edge-weights, the girth of $G$ is the weight of a shortest cycle in $G$. For any graph $G$ with polynomially bounded integer weights, we present a deterministic algorithm that…
An edge-weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ is called stable if the value of a maximum-weight matching equals the value of a maximum-weight fractional matching. Stable graphs play an important role in some interesting game theory problems, such as…
