Motivated by low energy consumption in geographic routing in wireless networks, there has been recent interest in determining bounds on the length of edges in the Delaunay graph of randomly distributed points. Asymptotic results are known…
We present a numerical study for the threshold percolation probability, $p_c$, in the bond percolation model with multiple ranges, in the square lattice. A recent Theorem demonstrated by de Lima {\it et al.} [B. N. B. de Lima, R. P.…
The continuous extension of a discrete random variable is amongst the computational methods used for estimation of multivariate normal copula-based models with discrete margins. Its advantage is that the likelihood can be derived…
When modeling a directed social network, one choice is to use the traditional preferential attachment model, which generates power-law tail distributions. In a traditional directed preferential attachment, every new edge is added…
We consider the Bernoulli bond percolation model in a box $\Lambda$ (not necessarily parallel to the directions of the lattice) in the regime where the percolation parameter is close to $1$. We condition the configuration on the event that…
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…
We generalize the asymptotic behavior of the graph distance between two uniformly chosen nodes in the configuration model to a wide class of random graphs. Among others, this class contains the Poissonian random graph, the expected degree…
We develop a new probabilistic method for deriving deviation estimates in directed planar polymer and percolation models. The key estimates are for exit points of geodesics as they cross transversal down-right boundaries. These bounds are…
In this work, we study a new model for continuum line-of-sight percolation in a random environment driven by the Poisson-Voronoi tessellation in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. The edges (one-dimensional facets, or simply 1-facets) of…
Consider supercritical long-range percolation on $\Z^d$ where two vertices $x,y \in \Z^d$ are connected with probability asymptotic to $\|x-y\|^{-s}$ for some $s>2d$. Conditioned that the origin is in the infinite cluster, we prove a shape…
We study first-passage percolation on $\mathbb Z^d$, $d\ge 2$, with independent weights whose common distribution is compactly supported in $(0,\infty)$ with a uniformly-positive density. Given $\epsilon>0$ and $v\in\mathbb Z^d$, which…
We explore extreme value phenomena in spatial scale-free random graphs in a continuum setting based on a homogeneous Poisson point process in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Vertices carry i.i.d. weights $(W_x)$ and, conditionally on the vertex set and the…
Consider a network linking the points of a rate-$1$ Poisson point process on the plane. Write $\Psi^{\mbox{ave}}(s)$ for the minimum possible mean length per unit area of such a network, subject to the constraint that the route-length…
A new random geometric graph model, the so-called secrecy graph, is introduced and studied. The graph represents a wireless network and includes only edges over which secure communication in the presence of eavesdroppers is possible. The…
We consider stationary configurations of points in Euclidean space which are marked by positive random variables called scores. The scores are allowed to depend on the relative positions of other points and outside sources of randomness.…
We describe the critical window for percolation in the universality class of sparse growing random graphs. In our models, vertices arrive sequentially and connect independently to each earlier vertex $v$ with probability proportional to a…
We investigate the percolation properties of a planar reinforced network model. In this model, at every time step, every vertex chooses $k \ge 1$ incident edges, whose weight is then increased by 1. The choice of this $k$-tuple occurs…
We study random points on the real line generated by the eigenvalues in unitary invariant random matrix ensembles or by more general repulsive particle systems. As the number of points tends to infinity, we prove convergence of the…
Random arrangements of points in the plane, interacting only through a simple hard core exclusion, are considered. An intensity parameter controls the average density of arrangements, in analogy with the Poisson point process. It is proved…
We construct an edge-weight distribution for i.i.d. first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ whose limit shape is not a polygon and whose extreme points are arbitrarily dense in the boundary. Consequently, the associated Richardson-type…
