In this paper, we study the problem of detecting the presence of a planted perfect matching or spanning tree in an Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph. More precisely, we study the hypothesis testing problem where the statistician observes a…

Suppose that we are given an arbitrary graph $G=(V, E)$ and know that each edge in $E$ is going to be realized independently with some probability $p$. The goal in the stochastic matching problem is to pick a sparse subgraph $Q$ of $G$ such…

In this paper, matching pairs of random graphs under the community structure model is considered. The problem emerges naturally in various applications such as privacy, image processing and DNA sequencing. A pair of randomly generated…

In a random linear graph, vertices are points on a line, and pairs of vertices are connected, independently, with a link probability that decreases with distance. We study the problem of reconstructing the linear embedding from the graph,…

Let $H$ be a fixed graph on $v$ vertices. For an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $n$ divisible by $v$, an $H$-{\em factor} of $G$ is a collection of $n/v$ copies of $H$ whose vertex sets partition $V(G)$. In this paper we consider the threshold…

There has been substantial interest in estimating the value of a graph parameter, i.e., of a real-valued function defined on the set of finite graphs, by querying a randomly sampled substructure whose size is independent of the size of the…

In this paper, we consider the hypothesis testing of correlation between two $m$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ unlabelled nodes. Under the null hypothesis, the hypergraphs are independent, while under the alternative hypothesis, the hyperdges…

By prior work, it is known that any distributed graph algorithm that finds a maximal matching requires $\Omega(\log^* n)$ communication rounds, while it is possible to find a maximal fractional matching in $O(1)$ rounds in bounded-degree…

We study the graph alignment problem over two independent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs on $n$ vertices, with edge density $p$ falling into two regimes separated by the critical window around $p_c=\sqrt{\log n/n}$. Our result reveals an…

We propose a sure screening approach for recovering the structure of a transelliptical graphical model in the high dimensional setting. We estimate the partial correlation graph by thresholding the elements of an estimator of the sample…

We find conditions for the connectivity of inhomogeneous random graphs with intermediate density. Our results generalize the classical result for G(n, p), when p = c log n/n. We draw n independent points X_i from a general distribution on a…

Graph signals are functions of the underlying graph. When the edge-weight between a pair of nodes is high, the corresponding signals generally have a higher correlation. As a result, the signals can be represented in terms of a graph-based…

In this paper, we focus on the matching recovery problem between a pair of correlated Gaussian Wigner matrices with a latent vertex correspondence. We are particularly interested in a robust version of this problem such that our observation…

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…

An $n$-tuple $D=(d(1),\dots,d(n))$ is a \emph{feasible degree sequence} if there is a graph on $\{1,\dots,n\}$ such that $i$ has degree $d(i)$. Any such graph will have $m=\sum_{i=1}^n d(i)/2$ edges. Letting $G(D)$ be a graph chosen…
