Given a fixed graph $H$, a real number $p\in(0,1)$, and an infinite Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $G\sim G(\infty,p)$, how many adjacency queries do we have to make to find a copy of $H$ inside $G$ with probability $1/2$? Determining this number…

Let $f^{(r)}(n;s,k)$ be the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph containing no $k$ edges on at most $s$ vertices. Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'os conjectured in 1973 that the limit $\lim_{n\rightarrow…

We define new graph parameters, called flip-width, that generalize treewidth, degeneracy, and generalized coloring numbers for sparse graphs, and clique-width and twin-width for dense graphs. The flip-width parameters are defined using…

In this note, we consider the width of a supercritical random graph according to some commonly studied width measures. We give short, direct proofs of results of Lee, Lee and Oum, and of Perarnau and Serra, on the rank- and tree-width of…

Recently, Bollob\'as, Janson and Riordan introduced a very general family of random graph models, producing inhomogeneous random graphs with $\Theta(n)$ edges. Roughly speaking, there is one model for each {\em kernel}, i.e., each symmetric…

Twin-width is a recently introduced graph parameter with applications in algorithmics, combinatorics, and finite model theory. For graphs of bounded degree, finiteness of twin-width is preserved by quasi-isometry. Thus, through Cayley…

It was conjectured by Koh and Tay [Graphs Combin. 18(4) (2002), 745--756] that for $n\geq 5$ every simple graph of order $n$ and size at least $\binom{n}{2}-n+5$ has an orientation of diameter two. We prove this conjecture and hence…

We derive attainable upper bounds on the algebraic connectivity (spectral gap) of a regular graph in terms of its diameter and girth. This bound agrees with the well-known Alon-Boppana-Friedman bound for graphs of even diameter, but is an…

The problem of detecting edge correlation between two Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs on $n$ unlabeled nodes can be formulated as a hypothesis testing problem: under the null hypothesis, the two graphs are sampled independently; under the…

We study the asymptotics of large simple graphs constrained by the limiting density of edges and the limiting subgraph density of an arbitrary fixed graph $H$. We prove that, for all but finitely many values of the edge density, if the…

A random $n$-lift of a base graph $G$ is its cover graph $H$ on the vertices $[n]\times V(G)$, where for each edge $u v$ in $G$ there is an independent uniform bijection $\pi$, and $H$ has all edges of the form $(i,u),(\pi(i),v)$. A main…

Motivated by the study of greedy algorithms for graph coloring, Bernshteyn and Lee introduced a generalization of graph degeneracy, which is called weak degeneracy. In this paper, we show the lower bound of the weak degeneracy for…

Let G be a simple balanced bipartite graph on $2n$ vertices, $\delta = \delta(G)/n$, and $\rho={\delta + \sqrt{2 \delta -1} \over 2}$. If $\delta > 1/2$ then it has a $\lfloor \rho n \rfloor$-regular spanning subgraph. The statement is…

A result of Erd\"os and R\'enyi shows that for a fixed integer n almost all graphs satisfy the n-e.c. adjacency property. However, there are few explicit constructions of n e.c. graphs for n > 2, and almost all known families of n-e.c.…

The well-known 1-2-3 Conjecture asserts that the edges of every graph without isolated edges can be weighted with $1$, $2$ and $3$ so that adjacent vertices receive distinct weighted degrees. This is open in general, while it is known to be…

An adjacency-crossing graph is a graph that can be drawn such that every two edges that cross the same edge share a common endpoint. We show that the number of edges in an $n$-vertex adjacency-crossing graph is at most $5n-10$. If we…

We study minimum degree conditions that guarantee that an $n$-vertex graph is rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For small values of $d$, we obtain a tight bound: for $d = O(\sqrt{n})$, every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(n+d)/2 -…

We prove that every graph has a spectral sparsifier with a number of edges linear in its number of vertices. As linear-sized spectral sparsifiers of complete graphs are expanders, our sparsifiers of arbitrary graphs can be viewed as…
