We study a model of random weighted uniform spanning trees on the complete graph with $n$ vertices, where each edge is assigned a weight of $n^{1+\gamma}$ with probability $1/n$ and $1$ otherwise. Whenever $\gamma$ is large enough, we prove…

We investigate some topological and spectral properties of Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi (ER) random digraphs $D(n,p)$. In terms of topological properties, our primary focus lies in analyzing the number of non-isolated vertices $V_x(D)$ as well as…

We identify the upper large deviation probability for the number of edges in scale-free geometric random graph models as the space volume goes to infinity. Our result covers the models of scale-free percolation, the Boolean model with…

We consider the minimum spanning tree problem with predictions, using the weight-arrival model, i.e., the graph is given, together with predictions for the weights of all edges. Then the actual weights arrive one at a time and an…

For a graph $G$, let $\tau(G)$ denote the number of spanning trees. We show that for every fixed $0 < c < 1/4$, the number of distinct values of $\tau(G)$, as $G$ ranges over simple graphs on $n$ vertices, is at least $\exp(c n \log n)$ for…
