We study graph-theoretic properties of random $0/1$ polytopes. Specifically, let $Q_p^n \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ be a random subset where each point is included independently with probability $p$, and consider the graph $G_p$ of the polytope…

We study the number of edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles one can guarantee in a sufficiently large graph G on n vertices with minimum degree d = (1/2+a)n. For any constant a > 0, we give an optimal answer in the following sense: let…

We consider a time varying analogue of the Erd{\H o}s-R{\' e}nyi graph and study the topological variations of its associated clique complex. The dynamics of the graph are stationary and are determined by the edges, which evolve…

A $k$-defective clique is a relaxation of the traditional clique definition, allowing up to $k$ missing edges. This relaxation is crucial in various real-world applications such as link prediction, community detection, and social network…

An $\ell$-lift of a graph $G$ is any graph obtained by replacing every vertex of $G$ with an independent set of size $\ell$, and connecting every pair of two such independent sets that correspond to an edge in $G$ by a matching of size…

We consider the problem of detecting a community of densely connected vertices in a high-dimensional bipartite graph of size $n_1 \times n_2$. Under the null hypothesis, the observed graph is drawn from a bipartite Erd\H{o}s-Renyi…

In this work, we consider the problem of sampling a $k$-clique in a graph from an almost uniform distribution in sublinear time in the general graph query model. Specifically the algorithm should output each $k$-clique with probability…

We show that a graph with $n$ vertices and vertex cover of size $k$ has at most $4^k + n$ potential maximal cliques. We also show that for each positive integer $k$, there exists a graph with vertex cover of size $k$, $O(k^2)$ vertices, and…

Motivated by an approach to visualization of high dimensional statistical data given in Hurley and Oldford (2011), this work examines the clique structure of $J_n(m, m-1)$ Johnson graphs. Cliques and maximal cliques are characterized and…

Given an undirected graph and $0\le\epsilon\le1$, a set of nodes is called $\epsilon$-near clique if all but an $\epsilon$ fraction of the pairs of nodes in the set have a link between them. In this paper we present a fast synchronous…

We consider the maximum chromatic number of hypergraphs consisting of cliques that have pairwise small intersections. Designs of the appropriate parameters produce optimal constructions, but these are known to exist only when the number of…

Fix integers $n \ge r \ge 2$. A clique partition of ${[n] \choose r}$ is a collection of proper subsets $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_t \subset [n]$ such that $\bigcup_i{A_i \choose r}$ is a partition of ${[n] \choose r}$. Let $\cp(n,r)$ denote the…

If K is an odd-dimensional flag closed manifold, flag generalized homology sphere or a more general flag weak pseudomanifold with sufficiently many vertices, then the maximal number of edges in K is achieved by the balanced join of cycles.…

We prove that the family of largest cuts in the binomial random graph exhibits the following stability property: If $1/n \ll p = 1-\Omega(1)$, then, with high probability, there is a set of $n - o(n)$ vertices that is partitioned in the…

A \emph{clique} is a set of pairwise adjacent vertices in a graph. We determine the maximum number of cliques in a graph for the following graph classes: (1) graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges; (2) graphs with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges,…

Given a graph $G$ and a constant $\gamma \in [0,1]$, let $\omega^{(\gamma)}(G)$ be the largest integer $r$ such that there exists an $r$-vertex subgraph of $G$ containing at least $\gamma \binom{r}{2}$ edges. It was recently shown that…

The triangle packing number $\nu(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the maximum size of a set of edge-disjoint triangles in $G$. Tuza conjectured that in any graph $G$ there exists a set of at most $2\nu(G)$ edges intersecting every triangle in $G$. We…
