In recent years there has been much progress in graph theory on questions of the following type. What is the threshold for a certain large substructure to appear in a random graph? When does a random graph contain all structures from a…

The maximum likelihood threshold (MLT) of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of samples to almost surely guarantee existence of the maximum likelihood estimate in the corresponding Gaussian graphical model. We give a new characterization of…

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 a Poisson process on a bounded interval, its random geometric graph is the graph whose vertices are the points of the Poisson process and edges exist between two points if and only if their distance is less than a fixed given…

In stochastic geometry there are several instances of threshold phenomena in high dimensions: the behavior of a limit of some expectation changes abruptly when some parameter passes through a critical value. This note continues the…

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…

The metric dimension of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of vertices in a subset $S$ of the vertex set of $G$ such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in $S$. In this paper we investigate the…

We define and study a natural category of graph limits. The objects are pairs $(\pi,\mu)$, where $\pi$ (the distribution of vertices) is an abstract probability measure on some abstract measurable space $(X,\mathcal{A})$ and $\mu$ (the…

We consider the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi evolution of random graphs, where a new uniformly distributed edge is added to the graph in every step. For every fixed $d\ge 1$, we show that with high probability, the graph becomes rigid in $\mathbb R^d$…

We consider isomorphism properties of infinite random geometric graphs defined over a variety of metrics. In previous work, it was shown that for $\mathbb{R}^n$ with the $L_{\infty}$-metric, the infinite random geometric graph is, with…

The threshold $p_c(H)$ for the event that the binomial random graph $G_{n,p}$ contains a copy of a graph $H$ is the unique $p$ for which $\mathbb{P}(H \subseteq G_{n,p}) = 1/2$, and the fractional expectation threshold $q_f(H)$ is roughly…

We introduce a new class of countably infinite random geometric graphs, whose vertices are points in a metric space, and vertices are adjacent independently with probability p if the metric distance between the vertices is below a given…

We introduce probability-graphons which are probability kernels that generalize graphons to the case of weighted graphs. Probability-graphons appear as the limit objects to study sequences of large weighted graphs whose distribution of…

The study of substructures in random objects has a long history, beginning with Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi's work on subgraphs of random graphs. We study the existence of certain substructures in random subsets of vector spaces over finite…

A graph is called a chain graph if it is bipartite and the neighborhoods of the vertices in each color class form a chain with respect to inclusion. A threshold graph can be obtained from a chain graph by making adjacent all pairs of…

Many real-world networks of interest are embedded in physical space. We present a new random graph model aiming to reflect the interplay between the geometries of the graph and of the underlying space. The model favors configurations with…
