In the graph shotgun assembly problem, we are given the balls of radius $r$ around each vertex of a graph and asked to reconstruct the graph. We study the shotgun assembly of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $\mathcal G(n,p)$ for a wide…
Mossel and Ross (2019) introduce the shotgun assembly problem for random graphs: what radius $R$ ensures that the random graph $G$ can be uniquely recovered from its list of rooted $R$-neighborhoods, with high probability? Here we consider…
In a recent work, Huang and Tikhomirov considered the shotgun assembly for Erd\H os-R\'enyi graphs $\mathcal G(n,p_n)$ with $p_n=n^{-\alpha}$, and showed that the graph is reconstructable if $0<\alpha < \frac{1}{2}$ and not reconstructable…
Graph shotgun assembly refers to the problem of reconstructing a graph from a collection of local neighborhoods. In this paper, we consider shotgun assembly of \ER random graphs $G(n, p_n)$, where $p_n = n^{-\alpha}$ for $0 < \alpha < 1$.…
We study the shotgun assembly problem for the lattice labeling model, where i.i.d. uniform labels are assigned to each vertex in a $d$-dimensional box of side length $n$. We wish to recover the labeling configuration on the whole box given…
In a recent paper [6], J. Gaudio and E. Mossel studied the shotgun assembly of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathcal G(n,p_n)$ with $p_n=n^{-\alpha}$, and showed that the graph is reconstructable form its $1$-neighbourhoods if $0<\alpha <…
We consider the problem of reconstructing graphs or labeled graphs from neighborhoods of a given radius r. Special instances of this problem include the well known: DNA shotgun assembly; the lesser-known: neural network reconstruction; and…
Consider a pair of correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathcal G(n,\tfrac{\lambda}{n};s)$ that are subsampled from a common parent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph with average degree $\lambda$ and subsampling probability $s$. We establish a sharp…
Given a positive integer $n$, an unlabeled graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, and a vertex $v$ of $G$, let $N_G(v)$ be the subgraph of $G$ induced by vertices of $G$ of distance at most one from $v$. We show that there are universal constants…
In this paper we study detection and reconstruction of planted structures in Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs. Motivated by a problem of communication security, we focus on planted structures that consist in a tree graph. For planted line…
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…
We investigate the threshold probability for connectivity of sparse graphs under weak assumptions. As a corollary this completely solve the problem for Cartesian powers of arbitrary graphs. In detail, let $G$ be a connected graph on $k$…
We introduce a natural generalization of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph model in which random instances of a fixed motif are added independently. The binomial random motif graph $G(H,n,p)$ is the random (multi)graph obtained by adding…
Graph alignment - identifying node correspondences between two graphs - is a fundamental problem with applications in network analysis, biology, and privacy research. While substantial progress has been made in aligning correlated…
For fixed $r\geq 2$, we consider bootstrap percolation with threshold $r$ on the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph ${\cal G}_{n,p}$. We identify a threshold for $p$ above which there is with high probability a set of size $r$ which can infect the…
The problem of detecting edge correlation between two Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs on $n$ unlabeled nodes can be formulated as a hypothesis testing problem: under the null hypothesis, the two graphs are sampled independently; under the…
In the random geometric graph model $\mathsf{Geo}_d(n,p)$, we identify each of our $n$ vertices with an independently and uniformly sampled vector from the $d$-dimensional unit sphere, and we connect pairs of vertices whose vectors are…
We study the spectrum of a random multigraph with a degree sequence ${\bf D}_n=(D_i)_{i=1}^n$ and average degree $1 \ll \omega_n \ll n$, generated by the configuration model, and also the spectrum of the analogous random simple graph. We…
In a recent work, Mossel and Ross considered the shotgun assembly problem for a random jigsaw puzzle. Their model consists of a puzzle - an $n\times n$ grid, where each vertex is viewed as a center of a piece. They assume that each of the…
We study the problem of robustly estimating the edge density of Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs $G(n, d^\circ/n)$ when an adversary can arbitrarily add or remove edges incident to an $\eta$-fraction of the nodes. We develop the first…
