Consider a measure $\mu_\lambda = \sum_x \xi_x \delta_x$ where the sum is over points $x$ of a Poisson point process of intensity $\lambda$ on a bounded region in $d$-space, and $\xi_x$ is a functional determined by the Poisson points near…
In a model of a connected network on random points in the plane, one expects that the mean length of the shortest route between vertices at distance $r$ apart should grow only as $O(r)$ as $r \to \infty$, but this is not always easy to…
Random graph mixture models are now very popular for modeling real data networks. In these setups, parameter estimation procedures usually rely on variational approximations, either combined with the expectation-maximisation (\textsc{em})…
In this paper we consider a dynamic Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph with independent identically distributed edge processes. Our aim is to describe the joint evolution of the entries of a subgraph count vector. The main result of this…
We study the structure of the asymptotic expansion of the probability that a combinatorial object is connected. We show that the coefficients appearing in those asymptotics are integers and can be interpreted as the counting sequences of…
We revisit the probabilistic construction of sparse random matrices where each column has a fixed number of nonzeros whose row indices are drawn uniformly at random. These matrices have a one-to-one correspondence with the adjacency…
Random intersection graphs model networks with communities, assuming an underlying bipartite structure of groups and individuals, where these groups may overlap. Group memberships are generated through the bipartite configuration model.…
We study the contact process on a class of geometric random graphs with scale-free degree distribution, defined on a Poisson point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$. This class includes the age-dependent random connection model and the soft Boolean…
We present new results concerning threshold functions for a wide family of random intersection graphs. To this end we apply the coupling method used for establishing threshold functions for homogeneous random intersection graphs introduced…
As generalizations of random graphs, random simplicial complexes have been receiving growing attention in the literature. In this paper, we naturally extend the Random Connection Model (RCM), a random graph that has been extensively studied…
In 1990 Bender, Canfield and McKay gave an asymptotic formula for the number of connected graphs on $[n]$ with $m$ edges, whenever $n$ and the nullity $m-n+1$ tend to infinity. Asymptotic formulae for the number of connected $r$-uniform…
We derive normal approximation bounds for generalized $U$-statistics of the form \begin{equation*} S_{n,k}(f):=\sum_{ 1 \leq \beta (1),\dots,\beta (k) \leq n \atop \beta (i)\ne\beta (j), \ 1\leq i\ne j \leq k} f\big(X_{\beta…
We establish conditions on sequences of graphs which ensure that the mixing times of the random walks on the graphs in the sequence converge. The main assumption is that the graphs, associated measures and heat kernels converge in a…
We will present a new method, which enables us to find threshold functions for many properties in random intersection graphs. This method will be used to establish sharp threshold functions in random intersection graphs for k-connectivity,…
Based on methods of structural convergence we provide a unifying view of local-global convergence, fitting to model theory and analysis. The general approach outlined here provides a possibility to extend the theory of local-global…
In a random graph, counts for the number of vertices with given degrees will typically be dependent. We show via a multivariate normal and a Poisson process approximation that, for graphs which have independent edges, with a possibly…
We investigate the threshold probability for connectivity of sparse graphs under weak assumptions. As a corollary this completely solve the problem for Cartesian powers of arbitrary graphs. In detail, let $G$ be a connected graph on $k$…
Consider a plane graph G, drawn with straight lines. For every pair a,b of vertices of G, we compare the shortest-path distance between a and b in G (with Euclidean edge lengths) to their actual distance in the plane. The worst-case ratio…
Let $H_d(n,p)$ signify a random $d$-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices in which each of the ${n}\choose{d}$ possible edges is present with probability $p=p(n)$ independently, and let $H_d(n,m)$ denote a uniformly distributed with $n$…
We identify the asymptotic probability of a configuration model $\mathrm{CM}_n(\boldsymbol{d})$ to produce a connected graph within its critical window for connectivity that is identified by the number of vertices of degree 1 and 2, as well…
