A graph with a trivial automorphism group is said to be rigid. Wright proved that for $\frac{\log n}{n}+\omega(\frac 1n)\leq p\leq \frac 12$ a random graph $G\in G(n,p)$ is rigid whp. It is not hard to see that this lower bound is sharp and…

The $k$-expansion of a graph $G$ is the $k$-uniform hypergraph obtained from $G$ by adding $k-2$ new vertices to every edge. We determine, for all $k > d \geq 1$, asymptotically optimal $d$-degree conditions that ensure the existence of all…

Determining whether there exists a graph such that its crossing number and pair crossing number are distinct is an important open problem in geometric graph theory. We show that $\textit{cr}(G)=O(\mathop{\mathrm{pcr}}(G)^{3/2})$ for every…

For two correlated graphs which are independently sub-sampled from a common Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathbf{G}(n, p)$, we wish to recover their \emph{latent} vertex matching from the observation of these two graphs \emph{without labels}.…

The classical result of Erdos and Renyi shows that the random graph G(n,p) experiences sharp phase transition around p=1/n - for any \epsilon>0 and p=(1-\epsilon)/n, all connected components of G(n,p) are typically of size O(log n), while…

We investigate the spectral properties of the Dirichlet Laplacian on large finite metric balls within irregular infinite graphs of quadratic volume growth. We consider an exhaustion $G_n = B_{R_n}(x_0)$ and the spectral zeta value $Z_n(1) =…

We prove that for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $n_0=n_0(\varepsilon)$ such that every regular oriented graph on $n > n_0$ vertices and degree at least $(1/4 + \varepsilon)n$ has a Hamilton cycle. This establishes an approximate…

A strongly regular graph is called trivial if it or its complement is a union of disjoint cliques. We prove that every infinite family of nontrivial strongly regular graphs is quasi-random in the sense of Chung, Graham and Wilson.

We establish that the phase transition for infinite cycles in the random stirring model on an infinite regular tree of high degree is sharp. That is, we prove that there exists d_0 such that, for any d \geq d_0, the set of parameter values…

Let $H_1,\dots,H_k$ be Hamilton cycles in $K_n$, chosen independently and uniformly at random. We show, for $k = o(n^{1/100})$, that the probability of $H_1,\dots,H_k$ being edge-disjoint is $(1+o(1))e^{-2\binom{k}{2}}$. This extends a…

Deciding if a graph is a Hamilton graph, also named the Hamilton cycle problem, is important for discrete mathematics and computer science. Due to no characterization to identify Hamilton graphs effectively, there are no tractable…

We study non-stationary averaging processes, where each term of a sequence is a weighted average of previous terms, namely $a_{n+1} = \sum_{j=1}^n p_n(j) a_j$. Our results extend classical theory in two distinct regimes. First, we prove a…

An $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ consists of a set of vertices $V$ and a set of edges whose elements are $r$-subsets of $V$. We define a hypertree to be a connected hypergraph which contains no cycles. A hypertree spans a hypergraph $H$ if it…

A metric probability space $M$ admits thresholds if the random geometric graph on $M$ has a threshold for every monotone graph property. We connect the existence of thresholds to the uniform expansion of $M$ and prove that all standard…

Finding general conditions which ensure that a graph is Hamiltonian is a central topic in graph theory. An old and well known conjecture in the area states that any $d$-regular $n$-vertex graph $G$ whose second largest eigenvalue in…

We give a simple method to estimate the number of distinct copies of some classes of spanning subgraphs in hypergraphs with high minimum degree. In particular, for each $k\geq 2$ and $1\leq \ell\leq k-1$, we show that every $k$-graph on $n$…

We show for $A,B\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ of equal volume and $t\in (0,1/2]$ that if $|tA+(1-t)B|< (1+t^d)|A|$, then (up to translation) $|\text{co}(A\cup B)|/|A|$ is bounded. This establishes the sharp threshold for Figalli and Jerison's…
