Motivated by Krioukov et al.'s model of random hyperbolic graphs for real-world networks, and inspired by the analysis of a dynamic model of graphs in Euclidean space by Peres et al., we introduce a dynamic model of hyperbolic graphs in…

We study a large family of graph covering problems, whose definitions rely on distances, for graphs of bounded cyclomatic number (that is, the minimum number of edges that need to be removed from the graph to destroy all cycles). These…

In this article, we derive Stein's method for approximating a spatial random graph by a generalised random geometric graph, which has vertices given by a finite Gibbs point process and edges based on a general connection function. Our main…

Dumas, Foucaud, Perez, and Todinca [SIAM J. Disc. Math., 2024] proved that if the vertex set of a graph $G$ can be covered by $k$ shortest paths, then the pathwidth of $G$ is bounded by $\mathcal{O}(k \cdot 3^k)$. We prove a coarse variant…

We develop a framework for algorithms finding the diameter in graphs of bounded distance Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension, in (parameterized) subquadratic time complexity. The class of bounded distance VC-dimension graphs is wide, including,…

We consider the Bernoulli bond percolation process (with parameter $p$) on infinite graphs and we give a general criterion for bounded degree graphs to exhibit a non-trivial percolation threshold based either on a single isoperimetric…

In the random $r$-neighbour bootstrap percolation process on a graph $G$, a set of initially infected vertices is chosen at random by retaining each vertex of $G$ independently with probability $p\in (0,1)$, and "healthy" vertices get…

Scale-free percolation is a percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ which can be used to model real-world networks. We prove bounds for the graph distance in the regime where vertices have infinite degrees. We fully characterize transience vs.…

We prove improved bounds on how localized an eigenvector of a high girth regular graph can be, and present examples showing that these bounds are close to sharp. This study was initiated by Brooks and Lindenstrauss (2009) who relied on the…

Random hyperbolic graphs were recently introduced by Krioukov et. al. [KPKVB10] as a model for large networks. Gugelmann, Panagiotou, and Peter [GPP12] then initiated the rigorous study of random hyperbolic graphs using the following model:…

Motivated by an old question of Gallai (1966) on the intersection of longest paths in a graph and the well-known conjectures of Lov\'{a}sz (1969) and Thomassen (1978) on the maximum length of paths and cycles in vertex-transitive graphs, we…

We present algorithms that extend the path-based hierarchical drawing framework and give experimental results. Our algorithms run in $O(km)$ time, where $k$ is the number of paths and $m$ is the number of edges of the graph, and provide…
