We proved that for any finite collection of sparse subgraphs $(D_m)_{m=1}^\ell$ of the complete graph $K_{2n}$, and a uniformly chosen perfect matching $R$ in $K_{2n}$, the random vector $(|E(R \cap D_m)|)_{m=1}^\ell$ jointly converges to a…
We investigate the asymptotic structure of a random perfect graph $P_n$ sampled uniformly from the perfect graphs on vertex set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. Our approach is based on the result of Pr\"omel and Steger that almost all perfect graphs are…
We present a new approach to showing that random graphs are nearly optimal expanders. This approach is based on recent deep results in combinatorial group theory. It applies to both regular and irregular random graphs. Let G be a random…
We study the random graph G_{n,\lambda/n} conditioned on the event that all vertex degrees lie in some given subset S of the non-negative integers. Subject to a certain hypothesis on S, the empirical distribution of the vertex degrees is…
We conjecture that the distribution of the edge-disjoint union of two random regular graphs on the same vertex set is asymptotically equivalent to a random regular graph of the combined degree, provided it grows as the number of vertices…
Consider the geometric graph on $n$ independent uniform random points in a connected compact region $A$ of ${\bf R}^d, d \geq 2$, with $C^2$ boundary, or in the unit square, with distance parameter $r_n$. Let $K_n$ be the number of…
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 study robust versions of properties of $(n,d,\lambda)$-graphs, namely, the property of a random sparsification of an $(n,d,\lambda)$-graph, where each edge is retained with probability $p$ independently. We prove such results for the…
In previous papers, threshold probabilities for the properties of a random distance graph to contain strictly balanced graphs were found. We extend this result to arbitrary graphs and prove that the number of copies of a strictly balanced…
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…
Consider a graph on $n$ uniform random points in the unit square, each pair being connected by an edge with probability $p$ if the inter-point distance is at most $r$. We show that as $n\to\infty$ the probability of full connectivity is…
Uniform random intersection graphs have received much interest and been used in diverse applications. A uniform random intersection graph with $n$ nodes is constructed as follows: each node selects a set of $K_n$ different items uniformly…
Given a set $A$ of $n$ points (vertices) in general position in the plane, the \emph{complete geometric graph} $K_n[A]$ consists of all $\binom{n}{2}$ segments (edges) between the elements of $A$. It is known that the edge set of every…
Random walks on expander graphs were thoroughly studied, with the important motivation that, under some natural conditions, these walks mix quickly and provide an efficient method of sampling the vertices of a graph. Alon, Benjamini,…
A connected graph $G$ with at least $2m + 2n + 2$ vertices which contains a perfect matching is $E(m, n)$-{\it extendable}, if for any two sets of disjoint independent edges $M$ and $N$ with $|M| = m$ and $|N|= n$, there is a perfect…
It follows from the Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava proof of the Kadison-Singer conjecture that if $G=(V,E)$ is a $\Delta$-regular dense expander then there is an edge-induced subgraph $H=(V,E_H)$ of $G$ of constant maximum degree which is also…
A graph is said to be $\mathcal{H}(n, \Delta)$-universal if it contains every graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$. Using a `matching-based' embedding technique introduced by Alon and F\"uredi, Dellamonica, Kohayakawa,…
We present an elementary way to transform an expander graph into a simplicial complex where all high order random walks have a constant spectral gap, i.e., they converge rapidly to the stationary distribution. As an upshot, we obtain new…
We study regular graphs in which the random walks starting from a positive fraction of vertices have small mixing time. We prove that any such graph is virtually an expander and has no small separator. This answers a question of Pak [SODA,…
We prove that any non-amenable Cayley graph admits a factor of IID perfect matching. We also show that any connected d-regular vertex tran- sitive graph admits a perfect matching. The two results together imply that every Cayley graph…
