We study the length of the longest increasing and longest decreasing subsequences of random permutations drawn from the Mallows measure. Under this measure, the probability of a permutation pi in S_n is proportional to q^{inv(pi)} where q…
Random binary search trees are obtained by recursively inserting the elements $\sigma(1),\sigma(2),\ldots,\sigma(n)$ of a uniformly random permutation $\sigma$ of $[n]=\{1,\dots,n\}$ into a binary search tree data structure. Devroye (1986)…
We study classical pattern counts in Mallows random permutations with parameters $(n,q_n)$, as $n\to\infty$. We focus on three different regimes for the parameter $q = q_n$. When $n^{3/2}(1-q)\to0$, we use coupling techniques to prove that…
The Mallows measure on the symmetric group $S_n$ is the probability measure such that each permutation has probability proportional to $q$ raised to the power of the number of inversions, where $q$ is a positive parameter and the number of…
Let P_{n,m} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all planar graphs on {1,2,..., n} with exactly m(n) edges. We use counting arguments to investigate the probability that P_{n,m} will contain given components and…
We use various combinatorial and probabilistic techniques to study growth rates for the probability that a random permutation from the Mallows distribution avoids consecutive patterns. The Mallows distribution behaves like a $q$-analogue of…
Random planar graphs have been the subject of much recent work. Many basic properties of the standard uniform random planar graph P_{n}, by which we mean a graph chosen uniformly at random from the set of all planar graphs with vertex set…
Accessibility percolation is a new type of percolation problem inspired by evolutionary biology. To each vertex of a graph a random number is assigned and a path through the graph is called accessible if all numbers along the path are in…
Degree distribution, or equivalently called degree sequence, has been commonly used to be one of most significant measures for studying a large number of complex networks with which some well-known results have been obtained. By contrast,…
A reformulation of the path length of binary search trees is given in terms of permutations, allowing to extend the definition to the instance of words, where the letters are obtained by independent geometric random variables (with…
We show that the Mallows measure on permutations of $1,\ldots,n$ arises as the law of the unique Gale-Shapley stable matching of the random bipartite graph conditioned to be perfect, where preferences arise from a total ordering of the…
We introduce a probability distribution Q on the group of permutations of the set Z of integers. Distribution Q is a natural extension of the Mallows distribution on the finite symmetric group. A one-sided infinite counterpart of Q,…
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 consider the distribution of quadratic Gauss paths, polygonal paths joining partial sums of quadratic Gauss sums to square-free fundamental discriminant moduli in a dyadic range [Q,2Q]. We prove that this striking ensemble converges in…
We study growth properties of the number of paths of lenght k for a variant of Cameo graphs introduced in an earlier paper. Sharp results are obtained for threshold for the k-path connectivity and the essential diameter.
When $k|n$, the tree $\mathrm{Comb}_{n,k}$ consists of a path containing $n/k$ vertices, each of whose vertices has a disjoint path length $k-1$ beginning at it. We show that, for any $k=k(n)$ and $\epsilon>0$, the binomial random graph…
For a unimodular random graph $(G,\rho)$, we consider deformations of its intrinsic path metric by a (random) weighting of its vertices. This leads to the notion of the conformal growth exponent of $(G,\rho)$, which is the best asymptotic…
We define an inhomogeneous percolation model on "ladder graphs" obtained as direct products of an arbitrary graph $G = (V,E)$ and the set of integers $\mathbb{Z}$ (vertices are thought of as having a "vertical" component indexed by an…
The Mallows measure is a probability measure on $S_n$ where the probability of a permutation $\pi$ is proportional to $q^{l(\pi)}$ with $q > 0$ being a parameter and $l(\pi)$ the number of inversions in $\pi$. We prove a weak law of large…
The main paradigm of smoothed analysis on graphs suggests that for any large graph $G$ in a certain class of graphs, perturbing slightly the edges of $G$ at random (usually adding few random edges to $G$) typically results in a graph having…
