We consider the problem of decomposing the edges of a directed graph into as few paths as possible. There is a natural lower bound for the number of paths needed in an edge decomposition of a directed graph $D$ in terms of its degree…
Shape-dependent universal crossing probabilities are studied, via Monte Carlo simulations, for bond and site directed percolation on the square lattice in the diagonal direction, at the percolation threshold. Since the system is strongly…
For any graph consisting of $k$ vertices and $m$ edges we construct an ensemble of random pure quantum states which describe a system composed of $2m$ subsystems. Each edge of the graph represents a bi-partite, maximally entangled state.…
We study the probability that a random walk started inside a subgraph of a larger graph exits that subgraph (or, equivalently, hits the exterior boundary of the subgraph). Considering the chance a random walk started in the subgraph never…
We propose an approach to compute the boundary crossing probabilities for a class of diffusion processes which can be expressed as piecewise monotone (not necessarily one-to-one) functionals of a standard Brownian motion. This class…
We introduce a new way to sample inhomogeneous random graphs designed to have a lot of flexibility in the assignment of the degree sequence and the individual edge probabilities while remaining tractable. To achieve this we run a Poisson…
In this paper we study first-passage percolation in the configuration model with empirical degree distribution that follows a power-law with exponent $\tau \in (2,3)$. We assign independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.)\ weights to…
The study of random graphs has become very popular for real-life network modeling such as social networks or financial networks. Inhomogeneous long-range percolation (or scale-free percolation) on the lattice $\mathbb Z^d$, $d\ge1$, is a…
We study the random graph obtained by random deletion of vertices or edges from a random graph with given vertex degrees. A simple trick of exploding vertices instead of deleting them, enables us to derive results from known results for…
We study the escape probability problem in random walks over graphs. Given vertices, $s,t,$ and $p$, the problem asks for the probability that a random walk starting at $s$ will hit $t$ before hitting $p$. Such probabilities can be…
A comparison technique for finite random walks on finite graphs is introduced, using the well-known interlacing method. It yields improved return probability bounds. A key feature is the incorporation of parts of the spectrum of the…
We study competing first passage percolation on graphs generated by the configuration model with infinite-mean degrees. Initially, two uniformly chosen vertices are infected with type 1 and type 2 infection, respectively, and the infection…
We consider the number of crossings in a graph which is embedded randomly on a convex set of points. We give an estimate to the normal distribution in Kolmogorov distance which implies a convergence rate of order $n^{-1/2}$ for various…
We study a large class of Bernoulli percolation models on random lattices of the half- plane, obtained as local limits of uniform planar triangulations or quadrangulations. We first compute the exact value of the site percolation threshold…
We study bond percolation on the square lattice with one-dimensional inhomogeneities. Inhomogeneities are introduced in the following way: A vertical column on the square lattice is the set of vertical edges that project to the same vertex…
We consider the number of common edges in two independent random spanning trees of a graph $G$. For complete graphs $K_n$, we give a new proof of the fact, originally obtained by Moon, that the distribution converges to a Poisson…
Let $[\mathcal{P}]$ be the points of a Poisson process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $F$ a probability distribution with support on the non-negative integers. Models are formulated for generating translation invariant random graphs with vertex set…

A bootstrap percolation process on a graph with infection threshold $r\ge 1$ is a dissemination process that evolves in time steps. The process begins with a subset of infected vertices and in each subsequent step every uninfected vertex…
The state space of our model is the Euclidean space in dimension d = 2. Simultaneously, from all points of a homogeneous Poisson point process, we let grow independent and identically distributed random continuum paths. Each path stops…
