In this paper we study maximum size and minimum weight planar matchings of inhomogenous random bipartite graphs. Our motivation for this study comes from efficient usage of cross edges in relay networks for overall improvement in network…
Past studies on the local limit of maximal weight matchings in edge-weighted large random graphs rely fundamentally on the assumption that the weights are atomless, which ensures that the maximal weight matching is unique. This excludes de…

Perfect matchings and maximum weight matchings are two fundamental combinatorial structures. We consider the ratio between the maximum weight of a perfect matching and the maximum weight of a general matching. Motivated by the computer…
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…
Suppose that the edges of a complete graph are assigned weights independently at random and we ask for the weight of the minimal-weight spanning tree, or perfect matching, or Hamiltonian cycle. For these and several other common…

Consider a random graph model where each possible edge $e$ is present independently with some probability $p_e$. Given these probabilities, we want to build a large/heavy matching in the randomly generated graph. However, the only way we…
Let $r \ge 2$ be a fixed constant and let $ {\mathcal H}$ be an $r$-uniform, $D$-regular hypergraph on $N$ vertices. Assume further that $ D \to \infty$ as $N \to \infty$ and that degrees of pairs of vertices in ${\mathcal H}$ are at most…
