We provide a local probabilistic description of the limiting statistics of large preferential attachment trees in terms of the ordinary degree (number of neighbors) but augmented with information on leafdegree (number of neighbors that are…

A vertex of a randomly growing graph is called a persistent hub if at all but finitely many moments of time it has the maximal degree in the graph. We establish the existence of a persistent hub in the Barab\'asi--Albert random graph model…

We consider an evolving random discrete tree model called Preferential Attachment with Vertex Death, as introduced by Deijfen. Initialised with an alive root labelled $1$, at each step $n\geq1$ either a new vertex with label $n+1$ is…

In this paper we focus on the problem of the degree sequence for the following random graph process. At any time-step $t$, one of the following three substeps is executed: with probability $\alpha_1$, a new vertex $x_t$ and $m$ edges…

Let ${\mathbf T}_n$ be a uniformly random tree with vertex set $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$, let $\Delta_{{\mathbf T}_n}$ be the largest vertex degree in ${\mathbf T}_n$, and let $\lambda_1({\mathbf T}_n),\ldots,\lambda_n({\mathbf T}_n)$ be the…

We introduce a novel preferential attachment model using the draw variables of a modified P\'olya urn with an expanding number of colors, notably capable of modeling influential opinions (in terms of vertices of high degree) as the graph…

For a labeled tree on the vertex set $\set{1,2,\ldots,n}$, the local direction of each edge $(i\,j)$ is from $i$ to $j$ if $i<j$. For a rooted tree, there is also a natural global direction of edges towards the root. The number of edges…

We study an asymptotical behavior of the maximal degree in the degree distribution in an evolving tree model combining the local choice and the Mori's preferential attachment. In the considered model, the random graph is constructed in the…

Adam is one of the most influential adaptive stochastic algorithms for training deep neural networks, which has been pointed out to be divergent even in the simple convex setting via a few simple counterexamples. Many attempts, such as…

We demonstrate a method for proving precise concentration inequalities in uniformly random trees on $n$ vertices, where $n\geq1$ is a fixed positive integer. The method uses a bijection between mappings…

Let $G = (V,E)$ denote a simple graph with the vertex set $V$ and the edge set $E$. The profile of a vertex set $V'\subseteq V$ denotes the multiset of pairwise distances between the vertices of $V'$. Two disjoint subsets of $V$ are…

Avraham et al. [AFK+15] presented an alternative approach to parametric search, called \emph{bifurcation}, that performs faster under certain circumstances. Intuitively, when the underlying decider execution can be rolled back cheaply and…

An L-shaped embedding of a tree in a point set is a planar drawing of the tree where the vertices are mapped to distinct points and every edge is drawn as a sequence of two axis-aligned line segments. There has been considerable work on…

Motivated by classic tree algorithms, in 1995 we designed a bottom-up $O(n)$ algorithm to compute the determinant of a tree's adjacency matrix $A$. In 2010 an $O(n)$ algorithm was found for constructing a diagonal matrix congruent to $A +…
