This paper studies the problem of detecting the presence of a small dense community planted in a large Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $\mathcal{G}(N,q)$, where the edge probability within the community exceeds $q$ by a constant factor.…
The planted densest subgraph detection problem refers to the task of testing whether in a given (random) graph there is a subgraph that is unusually dense. Specifically, we observe an undirected and unweighted graph on $n$ vertices. Under…
In this paper, we study the problems of detection and recovery of hidden submatrices with elevated means inside a large Gaussian random matrix. We consider two different structures for the planted submatrices. In the first model, the…

The planted bisection model is a random graph model in which the nodes are divided into two equal-sized communities and then edges are added randomly in a way that depends on the community membership. We establish necessary and sufficient…
We study the planted clique problem in which a clique of size k is planted in an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph G(n, 1/2), and one is interested in either detecting or recovering this planted clique. This problem is interesting because it is…
We study computational limitations in \emph{multi-plant} average-case inference problems, in which $t$ disjoint planted structures of size $k$ are embedded in a random background on $n$ elements. A natural parameter in this setting is the…
