We study the emergence of the giant component in the random cluster model on the complete graph, which was first studied by Bollob\'as, Grimmett, and Janson. We give an alternative analysis using a thermodynamic/large deviations approach…
Bounds for the expected return probability of the delayed random walk on finite clusters of an invariant percolation on transitive unimodular graphs are derived. They are particularly suited for the case of critical Bernoulli percolation…
Introduced the quantitative measure of the structural complexity of the graph (complex network, etc.) based on a procedure similar to the renormalization process, considering the difference between actual and averaged graph structures on…
It is well-known that the behaviour of a random subgraph of a $d$-dimensional hypercube, where we include each edge independently with probability $p$, undergoes a phase transition when $p$ is around $\frac{1}{d}$. More precisely, standard…
This work introduces and compares approaches for estimating rare-event probabilities related to the number of edges in the random geometric graph on a Poisson point process. In the one-dimensional setting, we derive closed-form expressions…
Limiting distributions are derived for the sparse connected components that are present when a random graph on $n$ vertices has approximately $\half n$ edges. In particular, we show that such a graph consists entirely of trees, unicyclic…
We study large deviations of the size of the largest connected component in a general class of inhomogeneous random graphs with iid weights, parametrized so that the degree distribution is regularly varying. We derive a large-deviation…
Probabilistic dependency graphs (PDGs) are a flexible class of probabilistic graphical models, subsuming Bayesian Networks and Factor Graphs. They can also capture inconsistent beliefs, and provide a way of measuring the degree of this…
Random intersection graphs have received much interest and been used in diverse applications. They are naturally induced in modeling secure sensor networks under random key predistribution schemes, as well as in modeling the topologies of…
Computation of the probability that a random graph is connected is a challenging problem, so it is natural to turn to approximations such as Monte Carlo methods. We describe sequential importance resampling and splitting algorithms for the…
We establish new Bonferroni-type lower bounds for the probability of a union of finitely many events where the selection of intersections in the estimates is determined by the clique complex of a chordal graph.
In this paper, we study the critical behavior of percolation on a configuration model with degree distribution satisfying an infinite second-moment condition, which includes power-law degrees with exponent $\tau \in (2,3)$. It is well known…
In this paper we study the threshold model of \emph{geometric inhomogeneous random graphs} (GIRGs); a generative random graph model that is closely related to \emph{hyperbolic random graphs} (HRGs). These models have been observed to…
We consider supercritical long-range percolation on transitive graphs of polynomial growth. In this model, any two vertices $x$ and $y$ of the underlying graph $G$ connect by a direct edge with probability $1-\exp(-\beta J(x,y))$, where…
Specify a randomized algorithm that, given a very large graph or network, extracts a random subgraph. What can we learn about the input graph from a single subsample? We derive laws of large numbers for the sampler output, by relating…
We propose a random bipartite graph with weights assigned to both parts of the vertex sets. Edges are formed independently with probabilities that depend on these weights. This bipartite graph naturally gives rise to a random intersection…
We identify the scaling limits for the sizes of the largest components at criticality for inhomogeneous random graphs when the degree exponent $\tau$ satisfies $\tau>4$. We see that the sizes of the (rescaled) components converge to the…
This work will appear as a chapter in a forthcoming volume titled "Topics in Probabilistic Graph Theory". A theory of scaling limits for random graphs has been developed in recent years. This theory gives access to the large-scale geometric…
We consider the near-critical Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph $G(n,p)$ and provide a new probabilistic proof of the fact that, when $p$ is of the form $p=p(n)=1/n+\lambda/n^{4/3}$ and $A$ is large,…
We study the inhomogeneous random graphs in the subcritical case. We derive an exact formula for the size of the largest connected component scaled to $\log n$ where $n$ is the size of the graph. This generalizes the recent result for the…
