Let $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ be a vector of i.i.d. random variables where $X_i$'s take values over $\mathbb{N}$. The purpose of this paper is to study the number of weakly increasing subsequences of $X$ of a given length $k$, and the number of…

We consider random temporal graphs, a version of the classical Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph G(n,p) where additionally, each edge has a distinct random time stamp, and connectivity is constrained to sequences of edges with increasing time…

The Erd\H os-R\'enyi law states that given a sequence $\{X_j\}_{j=1}^\infty$ of i.i.d.~($p$) coin-tosses, the longest run $L_n$ of heads in the first $n$ coin tosses approaches $\log_{1/p}n$ almost surely. In this paper we explore a…

Let $\pi$ be a permutation of $[n]=\{1,\dots,n\}$ and denote by $\ell(\pi)$ the length of a longest increasing subsequence of $\pi$. Let $\ell_{n,k}$ be the number of permutations $\pi$ of $[n]$ with $\ell(\pi)=k$. Chen conjectured that the…

We find a two term asymptotic expansion for the optimal expected value of a sequentially selected monotone subsequence from a random permutation of length n. A striking feature of this expansion is that tells us that the expected value of…

We study the longest increasing subsequence problem for random permutations avoiding the pattern $312$ and another pattern $\tau$ under the uniform probability distribution. We determine the exact and asymptotic formulas for the average…

We study the fluctuations, in the large deviations regime, of the longest increasing subsequence of a random i.i.d. sample on the unit square. In particular, our results yield the precise upper and lower exponential tails for the length of…

Longest Increasing Subsequence (LIS) is a fundamental statistic of a sequence, and has been studied for decades. While the LIS of a sequence of length $n$ can be computed exactly in time $O(n\log n)$, the complexity of estimating the…

We consider random walks with continuous and symmetric step distributions. We prove universal asymptotics for the average proportion of the age of the kth longest lasting record for k=1,2,... and for the probability that the record of the…

Given a graph $G$ and a bijection $f : E(G)\rightarrow \{1, 2, \ldots,e(G)\}$, we say that a trail/path in $G$ is $f$-\emph{increasing} if the labels of consecutive edges of this trail/path form an increasing sequence. More than 40 years…

The sequence a_1,...,a_m is a common subsequence in the set of permutations S = {p_1,...,p_k} on [n] if it is a subsequence of p_i(1),...,p_i(n) and p_j(1),...,p_j(n) for some distinct p_i, p_j in S. Recently, Beame and Huynh-Ngoc (2008)…
