Let $\mathcal G$ be an addable, minor-closed class of graphs. We prove that the zero-one law holds in monadic second-order logic (MSO) for the random graph drawn uniformly at random from all {\em connected} graphs in $\mathcal G$ on $n$…

A well-known result of Shelah and Spencer tells us that the almost sure theory for first order language on the random graph sequence $\left\{G(n, cn^{-1})\right\}$ is not complete. This paper proposes and proves what the complete set of…

In this paper the limit probabilities of first-order properties are studied. The random graph $G(n,p)$ {\it obeys Zero-One $k$-Law} if for each first-order property with quantifier depth not greater than $k$ its probability tends to 0 or…

Spectrum of a first order sentence is the set of all $\alpha$ such that $G(n, n^{-\alpha})$ does not obey zero-one law w.r.t. this sentence. We have proved that the minimal number of quantifier alternations of a first order sentence with an…

We find a logic really stronger than first order for the random graph with edge probability $\frac 12$ but satisfies the 0-1 law. This means that on the one hand it satisfies the 0-1 law, e.g. for the random graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,1/2}$ and…

Let G_n be the random graph on [n]= {1, ...,n} with the possible edge {i,j} having probability being p_{|i-j|}= 1/|i-j|^alpha, alpha in (0,1) irrational. We prove that the zero one law (for first order logic) holds. The paper is continued…

We consider first order expressible properties of random perfect graphs. That is, we pick a graph $G_n$ uniformly at random from all (labelled) perfect graphs on $n$ vertices and consider the probability that it satisfies some graph…

We study the model $G_\alpha\cup G(n,p)$ of randomly perturbed dense graphs, where $G_\alpha$ is any $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $\alpha n$ and $G(n,p)$ is the binomial random graph. We introduce a general approach for…

Let $\alpha \in (0,1)_{\mathbb{R}}$ be irrational and $G_n = G_{n,1/n^\alpha}$ be the random graph with edge probability $1/n^\alpha$; we know that it satisfies the 0-1 law for first order logic. We deal with the failure of the 0-1 law for…

In this work limit probabilities of first-order properties of the random $s$-uniform hypergraph in the binomial model $G^{s}(n,p)$ are studied. We give a complete discription of all positive $\alpha$ such that $G^{s}(n,n^{-\alpha})$ obeys…

For an $n\times n$ random image with independent pixels, black with probability $p(n)$ and white with probability $1-p(n)$, the probability of satisfying any given first-order sentence tends to 0 or 1, provided both $p(n)n^{\frac{2}{k}}$…

We extend the convergence law for sparse random graphs proven by Lynch to arbitrary relational languages. We consider a finite relational vocabulary $\sigma$ and a first order theory $T$ for $\sigma$ composed of symmetry and…

For graphs $G$ and $F$, the saturation number $\textit{sat}(G,F)$ is the minimum number of edges in an inclusion-maximal $F$-free subgraph of $G$. In 2017, Kor\'andi and Sudakov initiated the study of saturation in random graphs. They…

We consider random sub-graphs of a fixed graph $G=(V,E)$ with large minimum degree. We fix a positive integer $k$ and let $G_k$ be the random sub-graph where each $v\in V$ independently chooses $k$ random neighbors, making $kn$ edges in…

Nowhere dense graph classes, introduced by Nesetril and Ossona de Mendez, form a large variety of classes of "sparse graphs" including the class of planar graphs, actually all classes with excluded minors, and also bounded degree graphs and…

We study an asymptotic behavior of the probabilities of first-order properties of random graph G(N,p) in the article. We conider p such that lnp=-alnN, a>0. We find values of parameter a from (1-exp(ln2(1-k)),1) such that the random graph…

A celebrated result of R\"odl and Ruci\'nski states that for every graph $F$, which is not a forest of stars and paths of length $3$, and fixed number of colours $r\ge 2$ there exist positive constants $c, C$ such that for $p \leq…

We say that a first order sentence A defines a graph G if A is true on G but false on any graph non-isomorphic to G. Let L(G) (resp. D(G)) denote the minimum length (resp. quantifier rank) of a such sentence. We define the succinctness…

We show that on graphs with n vertices, the 2-dimensional Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm requires at most O(n^2/log(n)) iterations to reach stabilization. This in particular shows that the previously best, trivial upper bound of O(n^2) is…

We study property testing of properties that are definable in first-order logic (FO) in the bounded-degree graph and relational structure models. We show that any FO property that is defined by a formula with quantifier prefix…
