In this paper we introduce a new way of measuring the robustness of Erd\H{o}s--Ko--Rado (EKR) Theorems on permutation groups. EKR-type results can be viewed as results about the independence numbers of certain corresponding graphs, namely…

We study the typical structure of a sparse Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph conditioned on the lower tail subgraph count event. We show that in certain regimes, a typical graph sampled from the conditional distribution resembles the entropy…

Building on B.Park and Vondrak's recent generalization of the J.Park-Pham Theorem (formerly known as Kahn-Kalai conjecture) to non-uniform probability measures, this paper introduces the notion of "spread" for the non-uniform setting. This…

Asymptotic properties of random graph sequences, like occurrence of a giant component or full connectivity in Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs, are usually derived with very specific choices for defining parameters. The question arises to which…

For certain families of finite quantum graphs, we study the question of how eigenfunctions are distributed over the graph. To characterize properties of the distribution, generalized entropies of the R\'{e}nyi and Tsallis types are…

Resolving a recent problem of Bell, Frieze, and Marbach, we establish both the threshold result of Frankston--Kahn--Narayanan--Park, and its strengthening by Spiro, in the rainbow setting. This has applications to the thresholds for rainbow…

High-order structures have been recognised as suitable models for systems going beyond the binary relationships for which graph models are appropriate. Despite their importance and surge in research on these structures, their random cases…

We consider an even probability distribution on the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space with the property that it assigns measure zero to any hyperplane through the origin. Given $N$ independent random vectors with this distribution, under the…

In dense Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs, we are interested in the events where large numbers of a given subgraph occur. The mean behavior of subgraph counts is known, and only recently were the related large deviations results discovered.…

We investigate some topological and spectral properties of Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi (ER) random digraphs $D(n,p)$. In terms of topological properties, our primary focus lies in analyzing the number of non-isolated vertices $V_x(D)$ as well as…

For any given graph $H$, we are interested in $p_\mathrm{crit}(H)$, the minimal $p$ such that the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $G(n,p)$ contains a copy of $H$ with probability at least $1/2$. Kahn and Kalai (2007) conjectured that…

We give characterizations of the structure and degree sequences of hereditary unigraphs, those graphs for which every induced subgraph is the unique realization of its degree sequence. The class of hereditary unigraphs properly contains the…

For any fixed simple graph $H=(V,E)$ and any fixed $u>0$, we establish the leading order of the exponential rate function for the probability that the number of copies of $H$ in the Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi graph $G(n,p)$ exceeds its expectation…

For random $d$-regular graphs on $N$ vertices with $1 \ll d \ll N^{2/3}$, we develop a $d^{-1/2}$ expansion of the local eigenvalue distribution about the Kesten-McKay law up to order $d^{-3}$. This result is valid up to the edge of the…

Consider a `dense' Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph model $G=G_{n,M}$ with $n$ vertices and $M$ edges, where we assume the edge density $M/\binom{n}{2}$ is bounded away from 0 and 1. Fix $k=k(n)$ with $k/n$ bounded away from 0 and~1, and let…
