Let $H_r(n,p)$ denote the maximum number of Hamiltonian cycles in an $n$-vertex $r$-graph with density $p \in (0,1)$. The expected number of Hamiltonian cycles in the random $r$-graph model $G_r(n,p)$ is $E(n,p)=p^n(n-1)!/2$ and in the…

Given a symmetric $n\times n$ matrix $P$ with $0 \le P(u, v)\le 1$, we define a random graph $G_{n, P}$ on $[n]$ by independently including any edge $\{u, v\}$ with probability $P(u, v)$. For $k\ge 1$ let $\mathcal{A}_k$ be the property of…

For integers $r,t\geq2$ and $n\geq1$ let $f_r(t,n)$ be the minimum, over all factorizations of the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph of order $n$ into $t$ factors $H_1,\dots,H_t$, of $\sum_{i=1}^tc(H_i)$ where $c(H_i)$ is the number of…

We determine, asymptotically in $n$, the distribution and mean of the weight of a minimum-weight $k$-clique (or any strictly balanced graph $H$) in a complete graph $K_n$ whose edge weights are independent random values drawn from the…

The spread of a graph is the difference between the largest and smallest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. In this paper, we investigate spread problems for graphs with excluded clique-minors. We show that for sufficiently large $n$, the…

Motivated by an application in community detection, we consider an \ER random graph conditioned on the rare event that all connected components are fully connected. Such graphs can be considered as partitions of vertices into cliques.…

We estimate the maximum possible number of cliques of size $r$ in an $n$-vertex graph free of a fixed complete $r$-partite graph $K_{s_1, s_2, \ldots, s_r}$. By viewing every $r$-clique as a hyperedge, the upper bound on the Tur\'an number…

Fix a graph $H$ and some $p\in (0,1)$, and let $X_H$ be the number of copies of $H$ in a random graph $G(n,p)$. Random variables of this form have been intensively studied since the foundational work of Erd\H{o}s and R\'{e}nyi. There has…

We say that a hereditary graph class $\mathcal{G}$ is \emph{clique-sparse} if there is a constant $k=k(\mathcal{G})$ such that for every graph $G\in\mathcal{G}$, every vertex of $G$ belongs to at most $k$ maximal cliques, and any maximal…

Given positive integers n and m, and a probability measure P on {0, 1, ..., m} the random intersection graph G(n,m,P) on vertex set V = {1,2, ..., n} and with attribute set W = {w_1, w_2, ..., w_m} is defined as follows. Let S_1, S_2, ...,…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the clique number in rank-1 inhomogeneous random graphs, where edge probabilities between vertices are roughly proportional to the product of their vertex weights. We show that the clique number is…

We show that the expected number of cliques in the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,p)$ is $n^{\frac1{-2\log p}(\log n-2\log\log n+O(1))}$.

We consider a class of growing random graphs obtained by creating vertices sequentially one by one: at each step, we choose uniformly the neighbours of the newly created vertex; its degree is a random variable with a fixed but arbitrary…

We investigate the number of maximal cliques, i.e., cliques that are not contained in any larger clique, in three network models: Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs, inhomogeneous random graphs (also called Chung-Lu graphs), and geometric…

We study the intersection of a random geometric graph with an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph. Specifically, we generate the random geometric graph $G(n, r)$ by choosing $n$ points uniformly at random from $D=[0, 1]^2$ and joining any two points…

Inhomogeneous random graphs are fundamental models for real-world networks, where prescribed degrees are imposed as soft constraints. A common assumption in such models is that the degree distribution follows a power-law, capturing the…

The following random graph model was introduced for the evolution of protein-protein interaction networks: Let $\mathcal G = (G_n)_{n=n_0, n_0+1,...}$ be a sequence of random graphs, where $G_n = (V_n, E_n)$ is a graph with $|V_n|=n$…

A random graph model on a host graph H is said to be 1-independent if for every pair of vertex-disjoint subsets A,B of E(H), the state of edges (absent or present) in A is independent of the state of edges in B. For an infinite connected…
