For $k\mid n$ let $Comb_{n,k}$ denote the tree consisting of an $(n/k)$-vertex path with disjoint $k$-vertex paths beginning at each of its vertices. An old conjecture says that for any $k=k(n)$ the threshold for the random graph $G(n,p)$…
Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, we investigate for which functions $p=p(n)$ the random graph $G_{n,p}$ (the binomial random graph on $n$ vertices with edge probability $p$) satisfies with probability $1-o(1)$ that every red-blue-coloring of…
Given an undirected graph $G = (V,E)$, the cut polytope $\mathrm{CUT}(G)$ is defined as the convex hull of the incidence vectors of all cuts in $G$. The 1-skeleton of $\mathrm{CUT}(G)$ is a graph whose vertex set is the vertex set of the…
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $B \subseteq V(G)$. We introduce the \emph{bivariate $B$-restricted clique polynomial} \[ C_B(G;x,y) = \sum_{\substack{K \subseteq V \\ K \text{ is a clique}}} x^{|K|} y^{|K \cap B|}, \] where the…
Consider algorithms with unbounded computation time that probe the entries of the adjacency matrix of an $n$ vertex graph, and need to output a clique. We show that if the input graph is drawn at random from $G_{n,\frac{1}{2}}$ (and hence…
Mining dense subgraphs is an important primitive across a spectrum of graph-mining tasks. In this work, we formally establish that two recurring characteristics of real-world graphs, namely heavy-tailed degree distributions and large…
We say that a graph $G$ is Ramsey for $H_1$ versus $H_2$, and write $G \to (H_1,H_2)$, if every red-blue colouring of the edges of $G$ contains either a red copy of $H_1$ or a blue copy of $H_2$. In this paper we study the threshold for the…
In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in extremal problems concerning the enumeration of independent sets or cliques in graphs with specific constraints. For instance, the Kahn-Zhao theorem establishes an upper bound on the…
We consider classes of pseudo-random graphs on $n$ vertices for which the degree of every vertex and the co-degree between every pair of vertices are in the intervals $(np - Cn^\delta,np+Cn^\delta)$ and $(np^2- C n^\delta, np^2 +C…
We give a new bound on the parameter $\lambda$ (number of common neighbors of a pair of adjacent vertices) in a distance-regular graph $G$, improving and generalizing bounds for strongly regular graphs by Spielman (1996) and Pyber (2014).…
If $G$ is a graph and $\vec H$ is an oriented graph, we write $G\to \vec H$ to say that every orientation of the edges of $G$ contains $\vec H$ as a subdigraph. We consider the case in which $G=G(n,p)$, the binomial random graph. We…
We determine the sharp threshold for Hamilton cycles in randomly perturbed sparse graphs. For any $\alpha=\alpha(n)=o(1)$, let $G_{\alpha}$ be an $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree $\delta(G_{\alpha})\ge\alpha n$. We prove that if…
Let $n,k,b$ be integers with $1 \le k-1 \le b \le n$ and let $G_{n,k,b}$ be the graph whose vertices are the $k$-element subsets $X$ of $\{0,\dots,n\}$ with $\max(X)-\min(X) \le b$ and where two such vertices $X,Y$ are joined by an edge if…
Let $\mathcal{H}(k,n,p)$ be the distribution on $k$-uniform hypergraphs where every subset of $[n]$ of size $k$ is included as an hyperedge with probability $p$ independently. In this work, we design and analyze a simple spectral algorithm…
We prove a local limit theorem the number of $r$-cliques in $G(n,p)$ for $p\in(0,1)$ and $r\ge 3$ fixed constants. Our bounds hold in both the $\ell^\infty$ and $\ell^1$ metric. The main work of the paper is an estimate for the…
We investigate the threshold probability for connectivity of sparse graphs under weak assumptions. As a corollary this completely solve the problem for Cartesian powers of arbitrary graphs. In detail, let $G$ be a connected graph on $k$…
For a given finite graph $G$ of minimum degree at least $k$, let $G_{p}$ be a random subgraph of $G$ obtained by taking each edge independently with probability $p$. We prove that (i) if $p \ge \omega/k$ for a function $\omega=\omega(k)$…
A randomly perturbed graph $G^p = G_\alpha \cup G(n,p)$ is obtained by taking a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $G_\alpha = (V, E)$ with minimum degree $\delta(G)\geq \alpha n$ and adding the edges of the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$…
A graph $G=(V,E)$ is called $d$-rigid if, for a generic embedding of its vertices in $\mathbb{R}^d$, every edge-length preserving continuous motion of the vertices preserves the distances between all pairs of non-adjacent vertices as well.…
Let $G$ be a connected graph in which almost all vertices have linear degrees and let $T$ be a uniform spanning tree of $G$. For any fixed rooted tree $F$ of height $r$ we compute the asymptotic density of vertices $v$ for which the…
