We study the size of connected components of random nearest-neighbor graphs with vertex set the points of a homogeneous Poisson point process in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$. The connectivity function is shown to decay superexponentially, and we…
We investigate percolation on growing networks where the evolution of connected components resembles a non-equilibrium version of the multiplicative coalescent. The supercritical $\pi> \pi_c$ regime for a host of such models was conjectured…
Bootstrap percolation on a graph with infection threshold $r\in \mathbb{N}$ is an infection process, which starts from a set of initially infected vertices and in each step every vertex with at least $r$ infected neighbours becomes…
We consider the Constrained-degree percolation model in random environment on the square lattice. In this model, each vertex $v$ has an independent random constraint ${\kappa}_v$ which takes the value $j\in \{0,1,2,3\}$ with probability…
A central concern of network operators is to estimate the probability of an incident that affects a significant part and thus may yield to a breakdown. We answer this question by modeling how a failure of either a node or an edge will…
We study the trajectory of a simple random walk on a d-regular graph with d>2 and locally tree-like structure as the number n of vertices grows. Examples of such graphs include random d-regular graphs and large girth expanders. For these…
We comment on old and new results related to the destruction of a random recursive tree (RRT), in which its edges are cut one after the other in a uniform random order. In particular, we study the number of steps needed to isolate or…
Let A be the annulus in R^2 centered at the origin with inner and outer radii r(1-\epsilon) and r, respectively. Place points {x_i} in R^2 according to a Poisson process with intensity 1 and let G_A be the random graph with vertex set {x_i}…
We address the problem of social network de-anonymization when relationships between people are described by scale-free graphs. In particular, we propose a rigorous, asymptotic mathematical analysis of the network de-anonymization problem…
Distributions of the size of the largest component, in particular the large-deviation tail, are studied numerically for two graph ensembles, for Erdoes-Renyi random graphs with finite connectivity and for two-dimensional bond percolation.…
In this paper we study the strict majority bootstrap percolation process on graphs. Vertices may be active or passive. Initially, active vertices are chosen independently with probability p. Each passive vertex becomes active if at least…
We propose an approach to calculate the critical percolation threshold for finite-sized Erdos-Renyi digraphs using minimal Hamiltonian cycles. We obtain an analytically exact result, valid non-asymptotically for all graph sizes, which…
We provide arguments for the property of the degree-degree correlations of giant components formed by the percolation process on uncorrelated random networks. Using the generating functions, we derive a general expression for the…
We consider bootstrap percolation on the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ with infection threshold $r\in \mathbb{N}$, an infection process which starts from a set of initially infected vertices and in each step every vertex with at least $r$…
The following random graph model was introduced for the evolution of protein-protein interaction networks: Let $\mathcal G = (G_n)_{n=n_0, n_0+1,...}$ be a sequence of random graphs, where $G_n = (V_n, E_n)$ is a graph with $|V_n|=n$…
Bootstrap percolation is a type of cellular automaton which has been used to model various physical phenomena, such as ferromagnetism. For each natural number $r$, the $r$-neighbour bootstrap process is an update rule for vertices of a…
We study site percolation on a sequence of graphs $\{G_n\}_{n\geq1}$ on $n$ vertices where degree of each vertex is in the interval $(np -a_n, np+a_n)$ and the co-degree of every pair of vertices is at most ${n}p^2+ b_n$, where $p \in…
Majority bootstrap percolation on the random graph $G_{n,p}$ is a process of spread of "activation" on a given realisation of the graph with a given number of initially active nodes. At each step those vertices which have more active…
The Hamming torus of dimension $d$ is the graph with vertices $\{1,\dots,n\}^d$ and an edge between any two vertices that differ in a single coordinate. Bootstrap percolation with threshold $\theta$ starts with a random set of open…
We consider a preferential attachment random graph with self-reinforcement. Each time a new vertex comes in, it attaches itself to an old vertex with a probability that is proportional to the sum of the degrees of that old vertex at all…
