We consider random graphs with a given degree sequence and show, under weak technical conditions, asymptotic normality of the number of components isomorphic to a given tree, first for the random multigraph given by the configuration model…

Let $G$ be a large (simple, unlabeled) dense graph on $n$ vertices. Suppose that we only know, or can estimate, the empirical distribution of the number of subgraphs $F$ that each vertex in $G$ participates in, for some fixed small graph…

The topic is the average order of a connected induced subgraph of a graph. This generalizes, to graphs in general, the average order of a subtree of a tree. In 1984, Jamison proved that the average order, over all trees of order $n$, is…

Consider a set of $n$ vertices, where each vertex has a location in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is sampled uniformly from the unit cube in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and a weight associated to it. Construct a random graph by placing edges independently for…

A constructive characterization of the class of uniformly $4$-connected graphs is presented. The characterization is based on the application of graph operations to appropriate vertex and edge sets in uniformly $4$-connected graphs, that…

For which graphs $F$ is there a sparse $F$-counting lemma in $C_4$-free graphs? We are interested in identifying graphs $F$ with the property that, roughly speaking, if $G$ is an $n$-vertex $C_4$-free graph with on the order of $n^{3/2}$…

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 show that the existence of a universal structure implies the existence of a generic structure for any approximable class $\mathcal{C}$ of countable structures. We also show that the converse is not true. As a consequence, we provide…

We consider a general interacting particle system with interactions on a random graph, and study the large population limit of this system. When the sequence of underlying graphs converges to a graphon, we show convergence of the…

The "slope-number" of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of distinct edge slopes in a straight-line drawing of $G$ in the plane. We prove that for $\Delta\geq5$ and all large $n$, there is a $\Delta$-regular $n$-vertex graph with…

We introduce probability-graphons which are probability kernels that generalize graphons to the case of weighted graphs. Probability-graphons appear as the limit objects to study sequences of large weighted graphs whose distribution of…

It was shown by Grohe et al. that nowhere dense classes of graphs admit sparse neighbourhood covers of small degree. We show that a monotone graph class admits sparse neighbourhood covers if and only if it is nowhere dense. The existence of…

An oriented hypergraph is an oriented incidence structure that allows for the generalization of graph theoretic concepts to integer matrices through its locally signed graphic substructure. The locally graphic behaviors are formalized in…

We consider the problem of estimating graph limits, known as graphons, from observations of sequences of sparse finite graphs. In this paper we show a simple method that can shed light on a subset of sparse graphs. The method involves…

Generalization and approximation capabilities of message passing graph neural networks (MPNNs) are often studied by defining a compact metric on a space of input graphs under which MPNNs are H\"older continuous. Such analyses are of two…
